Verse 1
Everybody sees the mountain
Standing quiet in the rain
Like it never knew destruction
Like it never knew its name
But underneath the stillness
Under all that frozen stone
There’s a pressure moving slowly
Like it’s learning how to grow
Pre-Chorus
I got good at staying quiet
I got good at holding down
Chorus
I’m an eruption waiting
Beneath a sleeping sky
All this silence only means
Something heavier inside
Every word I never said
Every truth I let decay
Turns into a shaking ground
That won’t stay buried anyway
I’m an eruption waiting
Verse 2
Years collected like a warning
Layered deep in burning time
I kept stacking up the pressure
Like it was a friend of mine
But nothing stays still forever
Nothing learns to disappear
Even stone remembers heat
Even calm is built on fear
Pre-Chorus
And every crack along my skin
Feels like it’s calling out
Chorus
I’m an eruption waiting
Beneath a sleeping sky
All this silence only means
Something heavier inside
Every word I never said
Every truth I let decay
Turns into a shaking ground
That won’t stay buried anyway
I’m an eruption waiting
Bridge
And when it comes
It won’t be graceful
It won’t be clean
It’ll be every swallowed moment
Breaking everything between
All the nights I held my breath
Thinking I could keep control
Turn to fire in the silence
Turning over every soul
Final Chorus
I’m an eruption waiting
And the mountain knows my name
All this quiet was just cover
For a storm I never named
Every love I never held
Every path I never chose
Turns into a breaking line
That finally starts to show
I’m an eruption waiting
Outro
Don’t call it anger
Don’t call it pain
Just a mountain learning how
To break itself open again
