not that serious - maeve noiré lyrics

you keep saying it’s not that deep, not that serious
oh really? tell me that again while i’m burning from the inside out
slowly
furiously
deliriously

every bruise i carry, every scar i wear, and every sleepless night i survive—
you treat them all like a punchline to your comfort
you call me dramatic, as if my pain is an exaggeration
you tell me i’m fine, like that word fixes anything
“fine” is what you say when you’re too scared to face the truth
“fine” is your shield, your lullaby, your way of pretending it doesn’t hurt you to hear it
“fine” keeps you comfortablе, while i’m peeling off my skin just to be seen

it’s serious
complеtely serious
stop pretending, stop twisting, stop shrinking what i feel
stop acting like my fire is just a spark you can blow away
you only think it’s serious when it’s you burning down
you only care when the flames touch your ground

i’ve held fire in my chest for so long it’s starting to sound like thunder when i breathe
you sit there smiling with your practiced calm
dropping little phrases like you’re diagnosing a dream
do you hear me? no
do you care? no
you minimize it. you sanitize it. you call it perspective
but i still feel every bruise you refuse to see
every truth you twist still bleeds inside of me
you keep saying it’s not serious
you act like my pain is just another headline to scroll past
you treat my breakdowns like a performance
and my scars like decoration—
something to look at, but never to understand
my silence becomes your peace
while i’m drowning in what you won’t name

it is serious
i am serious
do you hear me?
do you see me?
every word you ignore, every moment you erase, every truth you dilute—
i will not let you erase me
i will not let you replace me

i’ve swallowed nights whole and choked on the dark
i’ve hidden my screams in corners no one’s ever looked
i’ve carried your silence like a chain around my ribs
while you sip your tea and call it empathy
you say it’s not that bad—what a convenient lie
you never had to carry it, you never had to try
but i’ve been dragging this weight through every sunrise
and i’m done shrinking myself to make you feel right
i’ve earned every scar, every crack, every sleepless night—
and i will never apologize for surviving what you refused to see
it’s serious
say it
admit it
you only cared when it burned you too
