Silent Lessons

Lyrics

[Verse]
I took a step but couldn't hear the crowd scream
The clatter of the world slipped into my dream
Words on blackboards felt like foreign skies
Trying to see them but darkness always lies

[Verse 2]
They laughed at my silence like it was my fault
Each touch slipped away like it hit a vault
But in my mind there's a place where I can run
A loud rebellion where I touch the sun

[Chorus]
And all the sounds I’ve never heard stand tall
The echoes of a world that never calls
I build bridges in shadows they can't break or pull
I learned more in stillness than their halls ever could

[Verse 3]
A chalked equation whispered across my palm
It’s not the shouting but the silence that's calm
A thousand mocking glances couldn’t pry me down
In chains of their pity I wore no crown

[Bridge]
Though I trip through the air that I can’t see
It’s a symphony played invisibly
They were screaming lessons
I was seeking more
In whispers
I found keys to a thousand doors

[Chorus]
And all the sounds I’ve never heard stand tall
The echoes of a world that never calls
I build bridges in shadows they can't break or pull
I learned more in stillness than their halls ever could
