[Intro – distant, cold, spoken] I tried to say it But nothing sounded right [Verse I] I kept my voice low So it wouldn’t betray me Some things fall apart faster When you name them I learned how to stand still In rooms that felt wrong I learned that silence Can feel like agreement [Pre-Chorus] I wasn’t afraid I was already prepared [Chorus] There’s nothing loud enough To say what I didn’t Nothing sharp enough To cut through this calm I carry it quietly Like it asked me to There’s nothing loud enough So I let it stay [Verse II] I watched myself get smaller Without anyone noticing You can disappear slowly If you’re polite about it I smiled through the friction I nodded through the weight I learned how to survive By lowering the stakes [Pre-Chorus] I didn’t give up I just stopped reaching [Chorus] There’s nothing loud enough To justify the damage Nothing honest enough That doesn’t feel excessive I hold it together Because it works There’s nothing loud enough To prove this hurts [Breakdown – restrained, grinding, delayed impact] I’m not numb —I’M FUNCTIONAL I’m not broken —I’M USEFUL Still breathing Still here Still learning How to disappear [Bridge – melodic, fragile, unresolved] If I ever raise my voice It won’t be to explain It’ll be because Something finally gave [Final Chorus – heavier, less words, more weight] Nothing loud enough Nothing clean Nothing strong enough To be seen I carry it quietly Like it belongs There’s nothing loud enough So I move on [Outro – fading, hollow] I’m still here That’s all
