Can you hear me?

[Verse 1]
There’s a silence sitting heavy in my chest,
Like a weight I never chose, but never left.
Smiles crack like mirrors on my face,
Trying to hold on, but I’m breaking in place.

[Pre-Chorus]
I want to scream, but the air just dies,
The louder it hurts, the quieter I cry…
And no one sees what’s underneath my skin,
The war I’m losing, the storm within.

[Chorus]
Can you hear me?
Even if I don’t speak?
If my voice fades out,
Would you still believe
That I’m trying,
That I’m still here,
Even when I disappear?
Please…
Can you hear me?

[Verse 2]
Sometimes I feel like I’m not real,
Like I’m a shadow even I can't feel.
And I hate the mirror, hate my name,
Hate this heart that feels too much shame.

[Pre-Chorus]
I whisper loud inside my mind,
But the world just moves, it leaves me behind.
And I wonder, if I fell to the floor,
Would anyone notice anymore?

[Chorus]
Can you hear me?
Even if I don’t speak?
If my voice fades out,
Would you still believe
That I’m trying,
That I’m still here,
Even when I disappear?
Please…
Can you hear me?

[Bridge]
I don’t need saving 
Just someone to stay.
To sit in the silence,
And not look away.

[Outro]
I’ll keep breathing through the ache,
Even when I’m not sure why.
No happy ending here tonight 
Just me beneath a silent sky.
