[Verse]
I stitched my lips with threads of steel
Kept my truths behind a shield
The less they see the more they know
But silence grows sharp like the edge of a bow
[Verse 2]
Every word burned scars on my tongue
Years passed fast but the quiet stayed young
I built a wall from whispers and lies
The less they ask the less I die
[Chorus]
Silence is screaming louder than sound
Words unsaid weigh heavy all around
They don’t know me they don't get inside
The less I share the safer I’ll hide
[Verse 3]
I buried my name in the shadow’s breath
Every syllable feels like a kind of death
Don’t break it don’t shake it just let it go
Pulled the threads tight so it doesn’t show
[Bridge]
This quiet it’s my armor my sin
A war I fight but will never win
The echoes ricochet across this void
A haunted peace not yet destroyed
[Chorus]
Silence is screaming louder than sound
Words unsaid weigh heavy all around
They don’t know me they don't get inside
The less I share the safer I’ll hide
