The Silence After the Fight
Cowboy in a Suit
It’s not the shouting that stays.
Glass on the floor, words in the air
Things you can’t fix once they’re there
Door still open, lights still on
But something steady’s gone
Your coat still hanging on the chair
Like you might come back, like you care
But the room feels different now
Quieter somehow
It ain’t the storm
That does the damage
It’s the silence after the fight
When the truth won’t hide in the light
When the echoes settle in
And you don’t know where to begin
No more fire, no more sound
Just the weight pressing down
You can win every word you say
And still lose everything that day
The silence after the fight.
Too quiet.
I’ve broken bones, I’ve broken pride
But this kind cuts from inside
You said things I can’t unsay
I said things that won’t decay
We both stood tall in defense
Now we’re sitting in consequence
No crowd left to impress
Just this mess
It ain’t the blow
It’s what remains
It’s the silence after the fight
When the anger fades from sight
When the room feels too wide
And there’s nowhere left to hide
No more blame, no more pride
Just two shadows side by side
You can stand your ground all night
But you still feel the quiet
The silence after the fight.
Some wounds scream.
Some just breathe.
It’s the silence after the fight
When you replay every line
When you realize being right
Don’t mean everything’s fine
No applause, no goodbye
Just a long unspoken why
You don’t fear the war you fight
You fear the silence
After.
It’s not the shouting that stays.

Lyrics
It’s not the shouting that stays.
Glass on the floor, words in the air Things you can’t fix once they’re there Door still open, lights still on But something steady’s gone
Your coat still hanging on the chair Like you might come back, like you care But the room feels different now Quieter somehow
It ain’t the storm That does the damage
It’s the silence after the fight When the truth won’t hide in the light When the echoes settle in And you don’t know where to begin No more fire, no more sound Just the weight pressing down You can win every word you say And still lose everything that day
The silence after the fight.
Too quiet.
I’ve broken bones, I’ve broken pride But this kind cuts from inside You said things I can’t unsay I said things that won’t decay
We both stood tall in defense Now we’re sitting in consequence No crowd left to impress Just this mess
It ain’t the blow It’s what remains
It’s the silence after the fight When the anger fades from sight When the room feels too wide And there’s nowhere left to hide No more blame, no more pride Just two shadows side by side You can stand your ground all night But you still feel the quiet
The silence after the fight.
Some wounds scream. Some just breathe.
It’s the silence after the fight When you replay every line When you realize being right Don’t mean everything’s fine No applause, no goodbye Just a long unspoken why You don’t fear the war you fight You fear the silence
After.
It’s not the shouting that stays.
