[Verse 1] I speak in quiet tones in a world that only listens to the loud. I stand inside the noise hoping someone feels the tremble in my words. I watch the echoes rise while mine fall back into my chest. I am not silent I am just quiet in a world that never is. [Pre-Chorus] If someone slowed their storm for a moment they might hear me. [Chorus] If you could hear me (hear me) you would see the light I keep in the dark. If you could hear me (hear me) you would feel the weight I carry alone. If you could hear me (hear me) you might see the person I never learned to show. I am not fading I am simply quiet. [Verse 2] I watch the loud ones fill the room their shadows stretching over every thought. I hold my truth like fragile glass afraid to let it shatter in the open air. I hope for someone who looks past volume someone who sees the quiet ones too. Someone who knows that silence is just another way of speaking. [Pre-Chorus] If someone listened with their heart they might hear mine. [Chorus] If you could hear me (hear me) you would know I never wanted to disappear. If you could hear me (hear me) you would feel the truth inside my calm. If you could hear me (hear me) my quiet would not feel like a cage. I am not weak I am steady and quiet. [Bridge 1] Maybe I learned to stay small so no one would feel my weight. Maybe I stayed quiet so the world would not break around me. But quiet is still a voice and mine is calling. [Bridge 2] There is a truth that only whispers when everything else goes still. A truth that waits behind the noise patient as a gentle tide. It says the quiet ones are not fading they are listening. Learning. Carrying worlds. Too fragile to be spoken in the open. In that silent place within me something soft begins to rise... Not loud. Just real. [Final Chorus] If you could hear me (hear me) you would see the courage behind the quiet. If you could hear me (hear me) you would feel the strength beneath the calm. If you could hear me (hear me) you might stay long enough to understand. I am here I am speaking even if the world speaks louder. [Outro] If you could hear me (hear me) (hear me) (hear me)
