Chains of Silence

[Intro, Soft Piano, Gentle] The whispers in the crowd, they seem so loud, Each step I take, I feel like I might break. [Verse 1, Slow Guitar, Melancholic] Walking through these halls, shadows on the walls, Every glance, a chance, to fall into my trance. The words I want to say, they fade and slip away, Trapped inside my mind, where fears are intertwined. [Pre-Chorus, Gentle Strings, Emotional] Heart beats like a drum, but I feel so numb, Voices echoing, but I'm only mumbling. [Chorus, Full Band, Dramatic] Chains of silence, holding me tight, In this lonely dance, I lose the fight. Searching for the light, in the dead of night, But the chains of silence, keep me out of sight. [Verse 2, Acoustic Guitar, Reflective] Faces blur and blend, it's hard to comprehend, The smiles and the laughs, feel like distant past. I want to join the game, but fear calls my name, A prisoner to doubt, I can't find a way out. [Bridge, Haunting Violin, Sparse] If I could break free, would they see the real me? Or would I still hide, behind this fragile pride? [Chorus, Full Band, Dramatic] Chains of silence, holding me tight, In this lonely dance, I lose the fight. Searching for the light, in the dead of night, But the chains of silence, keep me out of sight. [Outro, Soft Piano, Gentle] The whispers in the crowd, they fade and bow, Each step I take, I'll find my own way now.
