BENEATH THE SILENCE [Intro – Piano / Whispered Female Vocal] I can still hear you… Beneath the silence. [Verse 1] There is a room inside my mind Where yesterday refuses to die I close my eyes, I see your face But every time I reach You fade away I kept the words I couldn’t say Like broken glass beneath my skin And every road I walk alone Leads me back to where The ghosts begin [Pre-Chorus] I have been running From the shadow of my name But every step I take Brings me closer to the flame [Chorus] Beneath the silence I can hear you calling me Through the darkness Through the ruins of my dreams If I let the memories die Then a part of me will disappear So I will carry every scar Until the light is finally here [Verse 2] I built a fortress out of stone To keep the pain from getting in But walls can never stop the rain And every storm knows where I’ve always been I blamed the heavens for the fall I cursed the night that took you away But somewhere underneath the hate A wounded heart still begs For one more day [Pre-Chorus] I am not fearless I am only tired of fear And every broken piece Is reminding me you’re here [Chorus] Beneath the silence I can hear you calling me Through the darkness Through the ruins of my dreams If I let the memories die Then a part of me will disappear So I will carry every scar Until the light is finally here [Male Vocal – Distant] You cannot run forever… [Female Vocal] I know. [Male Vocal] You cannot bury what you are… [Female Vocal] I know… [Male + Female] Then open your eyes And face the night. [Bridge – Piano / Strings] [Female Vocal] If I could turn the hands of time I’d tell you everything tonight I would have held you through the storm I would have never let you go But time is not a door we close And love is not a ghost that dies Perhaps the ones we lose remain In every reason we survive [Build-Up] [Soft choir] Remember… Remember… Remember… [Guitar Solo] [Final Breakdown] I will not run. I will not hide. I will carry you… Inside. [Final Chorus – Full Band & Choir] Beneath the silence I can hear you calling me Through the darkness Through the ruins of my dreams I will not let your memory die I will not surrender to the fear Every scar became a road That brought me to this moment here [Final Chorus – Massive] Beneath the silence There is still a voice alive And through the ashes I can feel the fire rise If tomorrow takes us far away If the night returns again I will remember who we were And I will find you in the end [Outro – Piano] [Whisper] You were never gone… You were beneath the silence. [Single piano note]
