After the bell
when the noise fell out
yeah
Fluorescent lights humming on the second floor two shadows by the stairwell
tryna be ignored You drew moons on your paper I drew locks
on mine
both of us were hiding in the open all the time
Lunch trays, cold fries winter on the glass we laughed like little
rebels while the world walked past You had thunder in your quiet
I had smoke in my chest we never named the hurting but
we knew it by breath
Back then pain had no language so we dressed it up in
jokes
made a home out of corners where nobody looked close
After the bell when the crowd disappeared we stayed a little longer
with our shadows and fears After the bell when the daylight turned
thin you felt like a place I could almost be in After
the bell I still hear that sound not calling me back just
turning me around
After the bell I remember it clear two souls in the static
tryna vanish right here Bleachers after sunset bus lights on the street
everybody had a circle we had cracks beneath our feet You smiled
like a secret I breathed like a lie both of us were
fluent in the art of getting by I wish I paid attention
to the weight inside your stare I was busy acting bulletproof like
I didn’t care Now certain little places still pull me from the
blue not because I’m stuck there but they still sound like you
Back then love had no label it was softer than a name
just two hearts in survival sharing heat beside the flame
After the bell when the crowd disappeared we stayed a little longer
with our shadows and fears
After the bell when the daylight turned thin you felt like a
place I could almost be in After the bell I still hear
that sound not calling me back just turning me around After the
bell I remember it clear two souls in the static tryna vanish
right here
No blame on the silence
no crown for the pain
some people become weather you still feel when it rains
No need for an ending
no need for a sign
some rooms never leave you they just soften with time
After the bell when the crowd disappeared we stayed a little longer
with our shadows and fears After the bell I can lay it
down now thank you for the quiet when the world got loud
After the bell I remember it clear two souls in the static
tryna make it through here
After the bell
when the noise fell out
