No Applause
Lyrics
Coffee cup sitting on the kitchen sink
Sun's not up yet, don't want to think
Your jacket's still hanging by the door
But I don't reach for my phone anymore
I made my choice before the dawn broke through
Nobody saw it, nobody knew
I didn't leave to make a scene
I left so quiet no one seen
Some goodbyes don't need to be loud
They just fade without a crowd
No applause for turning away
No witness needed anyway
I just chose myself and walked away
It's not easier, it's not more clear
But it's quieter now, that's why I'm here
The radio plays low, I let it be
Nobody asking what's wrong with me
I closed a door that I won't open again
And I did it without telling a friend
I didn't leave to make a scene
I left so quiet no one seen
Some goodbyes don't need to be loud
They just fade without a crowd
No applause for turning away
No witness needed anyway
I just chose myself and walked away
I don't need forgiveness from no one at all
I don't need a reason or a curtain call
I just need this life to finally be mine
Some victories are quiet by design
I didn't change my world, I didn't heal
I just stopped the breaking, that's what's real
I didn't leave to make a scene
I left so quiet no one seen
Some goodbyes don't need to be loud
They just fade without a crowd
No applause for turning away
No witness needed anyway
I just survived another day
Coffee cup sitting on the kitchen sink
Sun's coming up, and I don't have to think
I made my peace before the world woke through
Nobody saw it
Nobody knew
No applause
No applause...
