Muted Agony

[Verse] Silence falls My heart pounds I step up to the stage The crowd surrounds Mic in hand Ready to unleash the roar But my voice is silenced My soul torn Rage consumes Frustration takes hold Accidentally hit that damn mute button I'm told No words escape The pain is deep As the audience disperses I weep [Verse 2] Alone in the darkness Left in despair Screaming internally Can't they hear? I reach for the sky But my voice is bound A tragic mistake This silence surrounds [Verse] Mute my mic It's killing me inside Can't express the feelings that I try to hide But I'm breaking free Gonna let it all out I won't be silenced Gonna scream and shout People leaving now Just like a drop of rain But I'm a fire Gonna ignite and flame I won't let it bring me down I'll make it right In this moment I'll shine in the spotlight [Verse 2] I'm tired of being muted Pushed to the side They say my voice ain't worth the time But I won't hide I speak the truth Don't care if it's loud or brash Can't change who I am Won't put on a mask [Chorus] Silent rage Burning deep inside No sound But my spirit won't subside Gonna break these chains Let my voice be heard No mute button can hold me I'm refusing to be deterred
