[Intro]
Silence louder than a scream
You don’t know what that means
[Verse 1 (rap)]
Say less—yeah I keep it compressed
Every thought getting locked in a cage in my chest
Play calm—yeah I pass every test
But the pressure keep building, it’s cracking the rest
Stay still—keep a mask on tight
Smile clean while I rot inside
Say “fine”—like I’m doing alright
While the fuse burns down out of sight
Every slight gets filed away
Every word that you say gets stored in a place
Where it twists, where it breaks, where it builds into weight
Till it turns into something you cannot contain
[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t yell—I absorb
Turn the pain into a core
Every second wanting more
Till it’s something I can’t ignore
[Chorus]
Dead quiet rage inside—no warning, no place to hide
It’s a storm you’ll never see till it breaks and comes alive
I’ve been holding every line while it eats me up alive
Dead quiet rage inside—now there’s nowhere left to hide
[Verse 2 (rap)]
Hold tight—yeah I play my role
Keep peace while it eats my soul
Stay low—never lose control
Till it spikes—then I overload
All the tension, all the strain
All the moments I restrained
Every time I took the blame
Just to keep you all the same
Now it’s stacking, now it’s real
Now it’s something I can feel
In my chest, in my throat
Like a blade that never dulls
[Pre-Chorus]
No release—no escape
Just a sealed internal state
Every breath starts to shake
Like I’m seconds from the break
[Chorus]
Dead quiet rage inside—no warning, no place to hide
You won’t see it building up till it hits you like a tide
I’ve been silent way too long, I’ve been buried way too deep
Dead quiet rage inside—now it’s something I can’t keep
[Breakdown]
Snap—explode—lose control
Let it out—burn it whole
No restraint—no disguise
You’ll see truth in my eyes
[Bridge]
(half clean)
You never saw it coming
You never heard a sound
But all the weight you gave me
Is what’s collapsing now
[Final Chorus]
Dead quiet rage inside—now it’s tearing through the seams
Everything I kept contained is exactly what you see
I was silent, I was steady, I was everything you needed
Now the quiet’s finally broken—and there’s nothing left to keep it
[Outro]
Silence… gone.
