When the Silence Fades by Magnum Music

[Tempo: slow‑mid pop ballad (≈ 72 BPM) – piano + strings + subtle synth pads]

[Verse 1]

The alarm’s a cruel reminder, another sunrise that feels like night,
Even with the weight of hours stacked beneath the sheets, I’m still not right.
Coffee brews but never reaches the part of me that used to wake,
Every tick on the clock is a cloud that never seems to break.
I walk through crowded streets, the world a blur of colour washed in grey,
And all the laughter that surrounds me sounds a little far away.

[Pre‑Chorus]

I paint a smile on the surface, a mask that’s worn too thin,
A promise to the people that I’m fine, that I can win.

Chorus [Punchy & Memorable]

When the silence fades, I’ll learn to hear my own heart’s beat,
I’ll lift the weight, let go of every hollow repeat.
I’m more than the night that keeps me lying still,
I’m a fire that can rise, even when the world feels cruel.

[Repeat the last two lines for impact)]

[Verse 2]

My mind’s a vinyl stuck on sorrow, the same refrain on endless spin,
It drowns out every whisper of the quiet that could let me in.
I feel the whole world on my shoulders and nothing at the same time,
A paradox of emptiness that drags me from the climb.
I know I should reach out, but my hands are made of lead,
The thought of moving forward feels like words left unsaid.

[Pre‑Chorus]

So I hold onto the breath that’s left, a fragile, trembling flame,
And whisper to the shadowed night, “I’m learning how to name”

[Chorus]

Bridge [Inspirational Depth]

Every sunrise is a promise you can’t see through the fog,
Every scar a map that shows you’ve walked this road before.
Let the tears become the rain that waters what’s been dry,
And when the night is longest, know that even stars must die—
Only to return, brighter, in the morning’s gentle sigh.

Final Chorus [With a Lift]

When the silence fades, I’m learning how to hear my own heart’s beat,
I’m shedding every weight, the endless loop beneath my feet.
I’m more than all the nights that kept me still,
I’m the fire that rises—yeah, I’m learning how to feel.

[Soft outro, piano fading]
