Raging Tide

(Verse 1)
In the hush of midnight’s veil, where the shadows softly fall,
There’s a heaviness I carry, and I can’t outrun it all.
Behind this steady smile I wear, a storm begins to swell,
I’m hidin’ in the quiet, in a place I know too well.
(Chorus)
No one hears me cry inside,
Might be a dream, or a truth I try to hide.
Lost in the echoes where my thoughts reside,
Rollin’ through my heart like a raging tide.
(Verse 2)
I walk beneath the noonday sun with laughter on my face,
But deep down there’s a hunger I can’t seem to replace.
I paint the world in colors bright, but shadows still break through,
Behind the curtain’s edge, I’m reachin’ out for you.
(Chorus)
No one hears me cry inside,
Might be a dream, or a truth I try to hide.
Lost in the echoes where my thoughts reside,
Rollin’ through my heart like a raging tide.
(Bridge)
I’ve tried to speak, to break the chain,
But silence pulls me back again.
Like a whisper in a hurricane, I’m tossed and turned about,
Still searchin’ for the strength to let this silence out.
(Verse 3)
So I’ll gather up my courage, let the fire start to burn,
Tear away the veil and take my rightful turn.
No longer bound by quiet shame, I’ll sing my truth out loud,
Every cry inside me is a voice that won’t back down.
(Chorus)
No one hears me cry inside,
Might be a dream, or a truth I try to hide.
Lost in the echoes where my thoughts reside,
Rollin’ through my heart like a raging tide.
(Outro)
Now here I stand, unshaken, ready to reclaim,
I’ll dance inside the chaos, I won’t be the same.
From the depths of silence, my soul begins to rise,
No more whisperin’—I’m ready to cry.
