Lyric

I had the words, but let them fade

They slipped away before I spoke

In quiet nights, I feel them stay

Like something I was never told

Every time I try to let it go

It comes back louder than before

In every silence, every pause

I hear it calling out for more

I never said it, but it’s still here

Beating quietly inside my chest

All the words I couldn’t find

Are still alive, they never left

I see your shadow in the light

A trace that never fades away

In every corner of my mind

You’re there in ways I couldn’t say

I tried to hide it deep inside

But it keeps breaking through the seams

In every breath, in every sigh

It’s louder than it’s ever been

I never said it, but it’s still here

Beating softly inside my chest

All the words I couldn’t find

Are still alive, they never left

I almost said it in the dark

When no one else was there to hear

But something held it in my heart

And left it hanging in the air

I never said it, but it’s still here

Beating louder inside my chest

All the words I couldn’t find

Are finally breaking through tonight

Even now, it’s still with me

The words I never got to speak
