I spoke in silence when I needed sound
Kept all my feelings buried underground
Thought I’d protect you from the storm
But silence left you cold, not warm
I watched you walk without a word
I swallowed everything I never heard
If I had known how far you'd go
I would've begged you not to go
If you heard me now
Would you turn around?
Would you forgive the way I stayed
Too quiet when I should’ve begged you to stay?
If you heard my heart
Through the stillness somehow
Would it change the way we broke apart
If you heard me now?
I write you letters I’ll never send
Ink bleeding truths I can’t defend
You were the song I didn’t sing
Now it echoes in everything
I whispered love when I should’ve screamed
And let us fade inside a dream
I thought I’d have another day
But all our time slipped away
If you heard me now
Would it ease your doubt?
Would you remember us at night
When every star feels too bright?
If I told you how
I still see you somehow
Would your silence hold me close
If you heard me now?
Maybe we were never meant to last
But I’m haunted by the words I passed
If timing is the cruelest thief
Then I’m the voice beneath the grief
If you heard me now
Not through phone or vow
But in the rustle of the leaves
Or in the hush between the beats
If my soul could speak aloud
Would you feel it, soft and proud?
Even if you never turn around…
I hope you hear me now
