Verse 1
i still hear your voice in the silence
but you’re not here to answer anymore
(ohhh) (don’t try...)
(ahhh — ahhh)
i’m standing still
in the middle of a storm
your words echo
but they don't keep me warm
(ohhh — mm-mmm)
(don’t try... don’t try...)
the world slowed down
when you closed your eyes
and i never said goodbye
(i never said goodbye)
(ahhh) (don’t try...)
Chorus
and i can’t breathe
(ohhh-oh)
(don’t try...)
when your voice fades
(ahhh — mmm)
(don’t try...)
i’m drowning deep
(mmm-mm)
in all these graves
of things i should’ve said
before you slipped away
and now the rain
just takes your place
(ooohhh) (don’t try...)
Verse 2
your hand let go
but the weight stayed behind
(mmm... ahhh)
(don’t try...)
i walk this road
with no peace of mind
(don’t try...)
i try to smile
but it always breaks
i’m haunted by
the choice i didn’t make
(ohhh-ohhh) (don’t try...)
Chorus
and i can’t breathe
(ohhh)
(don’t try...)
when your voice fades
(ahhh-ahhh)
(don’t try...)
i’m drowning deep
(mmm — ahh)
in all these graves
(ohh-oh)
of things i should’ve said
before you slipped away
(ahhh...)
and now the rain
just takes your place
(don’t try... don’t try...)
Verse 3
i don't feel cold
but my hands are shaking eyes wide open
but the world feels vacant (don't try..)
every step
feels like i'm faking smiles for ghosts
and hope i'm breaking (ahhh...) (don't try..)
Chorus
and i can't speak (don't try...)
when your name cuts through the quiet my heart's too weak (ahhh...)
to even try to fight it
i'm slipping slow
(ohhh)
into the gray
and everything you were just fades away
(don't try... don't try...)
Bridge
(oooooh — ahhhhhh — mmm)
i hear you in the thunder
feel you in the dark
(whispers: don’t try...)
you’re only in the shadows
never close, never far
(don’t try...)
i whisper your name
like a prayer that won’t stay
every drop that hits my skin
says you’re gone, you’re gone... again
(ohhh-ohhh — ahhh)
(don’t try...)
Final Chorus
and i let go
(don't try.)
no more words left to say i watched it fall
(ahhh...)
everything we made there's no more fight (ohhh..)
just endless gray
you were my light
and now you're...
washed away
(don't try... don't try..)
Breakdown
don’t try...
don’t try...
don't try ..
(whispers layered)
you can’t save what’s already gone
you can’t fix what you did wrong
don’t try...
don’t try...
don't try ..
Outro
i lost you in the downpour
and i don’t think it’s ever gonna stop
(mmmm... ohhh — ahhh...)
(don’t try... don’t try...)
(don’t try...)
