It’s quiet in here
Too quiet

Clock on the wall sounds louder at night
Every second lands like it’s choosing a side
I sit with my thoughts, don’t turn on the light
Like darkness might tell me something I hide
House full of echoes I didn’t invite
Every breath feels heavier than the last
I replay conversations I thought were done
Turns out silence keeps better tabs

Quiet rooms get loud
When you don’t run from them
Quiet rooms get loud
When you stay

I learned how to fill space with noise
So I wouldn’t hear what I avoid
Screens glow like a second sun
Still feel alone when the day is done
I don’t need pain to prove I’m real
But comfort never tells me what’s wrong
So I sit with the weight, let it speak
Let the quiet drag on

Quiet rooms get loud
When the truth shows up
Quiet rooms get loud
When you don’t look away

If I keep moving, I don’t have to listen
If I stop, everything catches up
Maybe peace isn’t silence
Maybe it’s surviving the noise

Quiet rooms get loud
And I’m still here
Quiet rooms get loud
And I don’t leave

It’s quiet in here
I hear everything
