[Intro] [Opening] So many words at once Nowhere to land Every thought pressing To find solid ground [Verse 1] When everything keeps speaking Nothing settles in Meaning slips between the lines Before it can begin Noise fills every opening Crowds out what’s unsure Answers stack on answers Still nothing feels clear [Pre-Chorus] There’s a pause that goes unnoticed Not empty, not withdrawn A place where sound can rest a moment Before it carries on [Chorus] Silence isn’t empty It’s where the truth can land Every word worth keeping Needs a quieter hand Nothing hears itself in shouting Nothing opens in the strain Silence isn’t disappearance It’s where listening begins [Verse 2] Screens stay lit through every hour Opinions never sleep Every silence gets mistaken For something weak Gaps get filled too quickly Before they can be read No one waits long enough To hear what wasn’t said [Bridge] Silence is not hiding It’s not turning away It isn’t losing ground Or letting things decay Silence is a clearing Where meaning learns its shape A steady place where language Can breathe before it breaks [Final Chorus] Silence isn’t empty It’s where the truth can land What we hold without filling Starts to understand When the noise releases Something honest remains Silence isn’t the ending It’s how listening stays [Outro] The room softens Breath slows down What was waiting Is heard all around [(music fades to silence)]
