Lyrics - [Verse] I thought the sky would break by now It’s been hanging low for days You said storms don’t ask permission But this one lost its way Verse 1 We sat inside a quiet room That used to feel like home Every word we didn’t say Was louder than the tone You traced circles on the table Like you were buying time I memorized your silence Like it was still a sign Pre-Chorus I kept waiting for the thunder Something I could blame Anything but watching Us dissolve without a name Chorus I’m still waiting for the rain to fall Something real enough to feel at all ’Cause this slow fade cuts deeper than the break You didn’t leave… you just slipped away And I don’t know when we crossed that line From “you and me” to “you’ll be fine” If this is ending, it’s a quiet kind I’m still waiting… for a sign Verse 2 You smiled like you were sorry But not enough to stay Like love was just a moment That time could wash away I tried to hold the version Of you I used to know But people aren’t reflections They don’t stay where you let go Pre-Chorus 2 I kept waiting for a lightning strike Something sharp and clean Instead of this erosion Of everything we’ve been Chorus I’m still waiting for the rain to fall Something loud enough to end it all ’Cause this slow fade cuts deeper than the break You didn’t leave… you just slipped away And I don’t know how to close the door When you’re still standing like before If this is ending, what are we pretending for? I’m still waiting… for the storm Bridge If I could freeze us in a frame We’d never have to change You’d still look at me that way And I would still feel safe But time doesn’t care what we meant It just moves through what we were And leaves behind a quiet space That nothing else can fill Final Chorus I’m done waiting for the rain to fall There’s nothing left to save at all This silence says more than words can take You didn’t leave… we just decayed And I can feel it in the space you keep Like you’re already gone from me If love is fading, I won’t beg it to stay I’ll let it go… like yesterdayThe sky never broke It just stayed gray And I guess… so did we
