Worth The Silence

Verse 1

We speak in shadows, behind closed doors,

Erasing footprints, covering the floors.

Every word a risk, every laugh a crime,

A secret friendship caught in time.

Pre-Chorus

I hate the lies that guard the truth,

But losing you would cut me loose.

Chorus

Is it worth it, all the silence and disguise?

Worth the secrets, worth the heavy lies?

To keep you near, I pay the cost,

But in the hiding, what have we lost?

Is it worth it, holding tight to this flame,

When no one can know, or speak your name?

Verse 2

Messages vanish, accounts concealed,

A bond so strong it can’t be revealed.

They’d never understand the way you see,

The broken parts that live in me.

Pre-Chorus

I walk the edge of truth and fear,

Afraid of losing what we have here.

Chorus

Is it worth it, all the silence and disguise?

Worth the secrets, worth the heavy lies?

To keep you near, I pay the cost,

But in the hiding, what have we lost?

Is it worth it, holding tight to this flame,

When no one can know, or speak your name?

Bridge

Every lie leaves a scar,

But I can’t let you drift too far.

Even in shadows, I need your light,

Even if I have to hide it from sight.

Final Chorus

Is it worth it, all the silence and disguise?

Worth the secrets, worth the heavy lies?

To keep you near, I pay the cost,

But in the hiding, what have we lost?

Is it worth it, when the truth can’t show—

That you’re the one who truly knows?

Outro

We’re bound by secrets, tied by chains,

But I’d do it all to keep your name.
