Before I Break cover art

Letra

[Verse 1]
Quiet room
Buzzing fuse
Breathing like a trapped animal
Counting all your crooked moves

You laugh soft
Show your teeth
Every kindness comes sharpened
Hidden in the sleeve

[Chorus]
I am the hush before the howl
The weight behind the stare
You only see the surface now
You don’t know what’s in there
Slow anger like a loaded sky
Hanging heavy over you
I’m the moment right before I break
And it’s already too late for you

[Verse 2]
Every slight
Every smirk
Stacked like glass on a shaking shelf
Careful where you lurk

You lean in
Say my name
Think I’m frozen in your shadow
Memorizing every vein

[Chorus]
I am the hush before the howl
The weight behind the stare
You only see the surface now
You don’t know what’s in there
Slow anger like a loaded sky
Hanging heavy over you
I’m the moment right before I break
And it’s already too late for you

[Bridge]
You feel it
Don’t you? (hey)
Air getting tight in your chest
Footsteps in an empty hallway
My patience
Taking its last breath

[Chorus]
I am the hush before the howl
The weight behind the stare
You only see the surface now
You don’t know what’s in there
Slow anger like a loaded sky
Hanging heavy over you
I’m the moment right before I break
And it’s already too late for you
