Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse] I used to bring things up When something didn’t feel right Used to stay in the moment Until we talked it through Now I let it pass Before it turns into anything I tell myself it’s easier For both of us this way [Pre-Chorus] Nothing starts Nothing breaks But something inside me Changes every time I let it go [Chorus] I stopped saying it Stopped being clear Stopped telling the truth Just to keep the peace here I stopped saying it And now I see Silence can change Who you’re allowed to be [Verse] I hear myself agreeing Before I even think Let the subject move on Before it gets too deep I call it patience I call it control But every quiet choice Takes something from my voice [Pre-Chorus] There’s a cost To keeping things smooth You lose the part of you That speaks the truth [Chorus] I stopped saying it Stopped making it hard Stopped pushing back When something felt wrong I stopped saying it And now it’s clear Everything’s calm But I don’t feel like I’m here [Bridge] Nobody told me to be quiet That part is mine I chose the calm Over being honest And now the silence Feels permanent Like the truth Would sound too loud [Build] Everything steady Everything still [Final Chorus] I stopped saying it And now it’s gone The part of me That pushed back strong I stopped saying it To keep things right Now everything works And I don’t feel alive [Outro] You don’t lose your voice all at once You trade it away One quiet night at a time
