Deafening Silence

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
They burned in Tiananmen, drowned in the waves,
Echoes of miners still trapped in their graves.
The poets were jailed, the singers were chained,
Still, they whispered truths even when silenced and restrained.

[Pre-Chorus]
From Gaza to Chile, from Tehran to Flint,
Ink written in blood, but they refused to sink.
We utter the words that they want to erase,
We give them voices they dare not face.

[Chorus]
We join the ones they won’t name,
Buried alive, but still we remain.
They silence the drums, but we hear their calls,
Even in silence, we break down these walls.

[Verse 2]
The women who marched, the children who cried,
The ones left for dead when the rivers ran dry.
The truth that was buried beneath smoking lands,
Words still clenched in fists of their dead hands.

[Pre-Chorus]
From Myanmar’s streets to Sudan’s lost fight,
From Ferguson’s flames to Kashmir’s night,
The lines we now draw are lines in red,
No longer silenced, we listen to what was said.

[Chorus]
We join the ones you won’t name,
Buried alive, by those with no shame.
No longer silenced, we break down these walls,
Our voices now so loud it echoes in their halls.

[Bridge]
No savior is coming, no hero to descend,
Only the broken who have chosen to defend.
And though we are tired, we carry this great weight,
For those who can't fight, for those who still wait.

[Outro]
Oh, For we are the ones with no name,
But history will remember us just the same.
Even in pitch darkness, a candle still burns,
And even in pure silence, these tides will turn.
