Inside the Sound

Verse 1:

Nights are loud but my words stay quiet,

I’m a war zone behind a calm riot.

Headphones on, world fades to black,

Every track a map of the pieces I lack.

I scribble pain on the corners of my mind,

Hoping someone finds what I can’t leave behind.

Pre-Chorus:

I wear the mask, smile for the show,

But these songs tell the story you’ll never know.

Hook:

I don’t say what’s breaking me, I press play instead,

Let the bass scream the shit inside my head.

If you heard what I hear, you’d feel the truth—

These songs hold the parts of me I refuse to lose.

Verse 2:

Fingers tap the beat like it’s counting my scars,

Lyrics cutting deep, stitching invisible bars.

I laugh, I joke, they think I’m alright,

But the music’s my only friend in the night.

Every note a confession, every chord a fight,

A soundtrack for the battles I hide out of sight.

Pre-Chorus 2:

I wear the mask, let the world pretend,

But the songs in my soul, they never bend.

Hook:

I don’t say what’s breaking me, I press play instead,

Let the bass scream the shit inside my head.

If you heard what I hear, you’d feel the truth—

These songs hold the parts of me I refuse to lose.

Bridge:

Some nights I want to disappear in the sound,

Let the melody carry me, let it pull me down.

But even broken, even torn, I survive,

The music keeps me breathing, keeps me alive.

Hook (final):

I don’t say what’s breaking me, I press play instead,

Let the bass scream the shit inside my head.

If you heard what I hear, you’d feel the truth—

These songs hold the parts of me I refuse to lose.

Outro:

So if you ever wonder why I play it loud,

It’s the only place where my heart’s allowed.

Every track a piece, every lyric a clue,

The music’s my voice when I can’t speak to you.
