[Verse 1]
I hear the hush get loud
When the room goes still
All those words you said
That I cannot feel
Praise falls like rain
On a windowpane
And I stand there dry
Holding all this shame
[Pre-Chorus]
But in the quiet
There's a crowd
Every doubt
Too proud, too loud
I keep missing
What you mean
When my own heart
Won't let me speak
[Chorus]
Listen to me
Listen to me
I am still here
I am still me
(Still me)
Even if the silence
Sings too mean
I will find my voice
Beneath the scream
(Find my voice)
[Verse 2]
I wear your kind words
Like a coat too tight
They should keep me warm
But they dim my light
So I let the noise
Move through my bones
Every broken echo
Calling me home
[Pre-Chorus]
And in the stillness
I can hear
All the parts of me
I locked in fear
One small ember
Under skin
Begging me to let
My self begin
[Chorus]
Listen to me
Listen to me
I am still here
I am still me
(Still me)
Even if the silence
Sings too mean
I will find my voice
Beneath the scream
(Find my voice)
[Bridge]
If I shake, let me shake
If I break, let it show
I don't need a perfect line
I just need to know
That the thundering dark
Can't take my name
I have lived in the wreckage
And I still remain
[Final Chorus]
Listen to me
Listen to me
I am still here
I am still me
(Still me)
Even if the silence
Sings too mean
I will find my voice
Beneath the scream
(Beneath the scream)
Listen to me
Listen to me
I am enough
To hear my own plea
(My own plea)
I am not the noise
I am not the ache
I am the voice
That I will make
