Reason I'm Silent

Post-hardcore meets alternative metal, driven by atmospheric synth pads and melancholic ambient textures, Heavy, distorted guitar riffs in the choruses, Emotional, raspy male vocals with a grit similar to Chad Kroeger, powerful belts in the refrain, Slow, cinematic buildup into an intense, heavy breakdown

[intro] 
[Ethereal synth pads fading in|Distorted guitar feedback echoes|Quiet, lonely piano notes]
[verse 1] 
The future collapses in the room where I wait 
Drawing my thoughts with strokes on the slate
I count every second that you’re not around 
In this ocean of nothingness, I’m starting to drown 
I’ve memorized letters I’ll never send 
A beautiful cycle that never will end 
The taste of your name is the salt in my wound 
A hollowed-out mind in a midnight lagoon.
[pre-chorus|Bass swells, drums start a steady pulse] 
My eyelids are heavy, my words are ash 
Watching the waves of my memory crash 
I’m screaming inside, but there's no sound...
[chorus|Heavy distorted guitars kick in, explosive energy] And you’re the reason I’m silent! 
A beautiful riot locked deep in my chest 
I’m obsessed with the past, 
I’m obsessed with the mess 
Wide awake between spaces, 
I’m failing the test 
Yeah, you’re the reason I’m silent 
[Melodic synth lead layered with guitars]
[verse 2] 
I'm watchig the streak of light under my door 
A beggar for rest, always wanting more 
You’re the air in the room, but I’m denied breath 
This kind of devotion feels closer to death 
I’m built of the secrets I keep from your eyes 
A temple of longing and crafted lies.
[pre-chorus] 
The pressure is rising, the walls are thin 
I’m losing the battle outside and within...
[chorus|Full power, gritty vocals] 
And you’re the reason I’m silent! 
A beautiful riot locked deep in my chest 
I’m obsessed with the past, 
I’m obsessed with the mess 
Wide awake between spaces, 
I’m failing the test 
Yeah, you’re the reason I’m silent 
[bridge|Music drops out, only atmospheric synths and whispering|vocals: whispering] 
I’m here... I’m always here... 
[vocals: gritty building to a scream|Heavy breakdown begins] 
Can you feel the weight of my eyes? 
Can you hear the cry of my lies? 
I AM THE SILENCE!  
[guitar solo|Melodic, soaring solo with heavy reverb]
[chorus|Maximum intensity, epic finale] 
nd you’re the reason I’m silent! 
A beautiful riot locked deep in my chest 
I’m obsessed with the past, 
I’m obsessed with the mess 
Wide awake between spaces, 
I’m failing the test 
Yeah, you’re the reason I’m silent 
[outro|Guitars fade into clean, ambient delay] 
Reason I’m silent... 
[Slow piano notes] 
Just a ghost in the hallway... 
[end]
