Lyric

I had words once

They fell apart

Left on the floor of my fragile heart

I tried to name the ache I feel

But silence was more honest

More real

So I breathe

And let the night speak for me

This is a silent prayer

No voice, no plea

Just an open heart

On its knees

I don’t ask for the pain to end

Or the past to be undone

I only stay

This is a silent prayer

The moon watches

Without reply

The stars don’t rush me to say why

In the quiet I finally see

That not all faith is spoken

Some just is

I don’t need to understand

To be held

This is a silent prayer

No voice, no plea

Just an open heart

On its knees

I don’t ask for the pain to end

Or the past to be undone

I only stay

This is a silent prayer

If love still hears me now

Let it hear my breath

If mercy still remembers

Let it rest

This is a silent prayer

Soft and bare

Nothing hidden

Nothing spared

I don’t need a sign from above

Or a reason to be strong

I remain

This is a silent prayer

I don’t speak

But I’m listening
