Lyrics
ANYTHING
(“now I don’t feel anything”)
Verse 1
I used to break like thunder
every time the world got loud,
every word you threw at me
hit harder than the last.
But something in me flickered,
then something in me snapped—
and now the part that used to care
is never coming back.
Pre‑Chorus
I’m not numb, I’m not frozen,
I’m just done being open.
You took everything I had
and called it nothing.
Chorus
Now I don’t feel anything—
not the push, not the pull, not the sting.
You can scream, you can claw, you can cling,
but I’m gone, I’m gone, I’m gone.
I don’t feel anything.
I don’t break, I don’t bend, I don’t bleed.
You can try, but you’ll never get in.
I’m a ghost in my own skin—
and I don’t feel anything.
Verse 2
I used to drown in silence,
choking on the things unsaid.
You kept digging deeper
like you wanted me dead.
But I built a wall of static,
wired tight around my chest—
and now your voice is nothing
but an echo I forget.
Pre‑Chorus
I’m not lost, I’m not hiding,
I’m just done with the fighting.
You pushed every part of me
past the point of lightning.
Chorus
Now I don’t feel anything—
not the push, not the pull, not the sting.
You can scream, you can claw, you can cling,
but I’m gone, I’m gone, I’m gone.
I don’t feel anything.
I don’t break, I don’t bend, I don’t bleed.
You can try, but you’ll never get in.
I’m a ghost in my own skin—
and I don’t feel anything.
Bridge
Maybe that’s survival.
Maybe that’s the price.
Maybe feeling nothing
is better than your lies.
Maybe I’m the ruins
you never thought I’d be—
but ruins still stand
when the fire leaves.
Final Chorus
Now I don’t feel anything—
and it’s the first time I can breathe.
You can try to pull me back into the ring,
but I’m done, I’m done, I’m done.
I don’t feel anything.
I don’t break, I don’t bend, I don’t bleed.
You can try, but you’ll never get in.
I’m a ghost in my own skin—
and I don’t feel anything.
