[VERSE 1] The room is blue at four in the morning Streetlight trembling across the floor Nothing moves, but nothing is empty I can feel what the quiet is waiting for There are words in the shape of my breathing There are names in the space by the door Every absence keeps its own rhythm Every goodbye leaves something more [PRE-CHORUS] I thought the dark was hollow I thought I was alone Then I put my hand against my heart And heard a language of its own [CHORUS] Silence has a pulse I can hear it in the dark Soft as a secret, strong as a spark It says I am still here Even when the room forgets Even when the night is all I have left Silence has a pulse And it keeps calling me back [VERSE 2] I used to fill every second with thunder So grief could never finish a line I hid from the ache in the noise of another Afraid of what would answer in mine But sorrow is not an execution And stillness is not a grave Sometimes the heart needs an empty horizon To remember the sound that it makes [BRIDGE] So let me be quiet Let the tears arrive I do not need to conquer this moment I only need to survive And somewhere beneath the breaking A smaller rhythm starts Not asking me to be fearless Only asking me not to depart [FINAL CHORUS] Silence has a pulse Now I hear it in the dark Soft as forgiveness, bright as a spark It says I am still here And there is more of me to find A future beating underneath the night Silence has a pulse And it sounds exactly like mine [OUTRO - WHISPER] I am still here I am still here
