Lyrics
Speak For Me
[Verse 1]
I'm not so good with chatter, no,
Words tangle where they ought to flow.
But oh, this tune, it knows my soul,
It speaks the things I never show.
[Prechorus]
Every note, every line,
A secret whispered in time.
[Chorus]
My music speaks for me, you see,
A melody's my honesty.
No need for words, no need to try,
Just close your eyes and let it fly.
[Verse 2]
Small talk feels like a paper mask,
A hollow echo, a fleeting task.
But strike a chord, and let it bask,
In truths too tender for me to ask.
[Chorus]
My music speaks for me, you see,
A melody's my honesty.
No need for words, no need to try,
Just close your eyes and let it fly.
[Bridge]
Every phrase, a little key,
Unlocking parts of mystery.
So if you listen, you might find,
The heart I hide between the lines.
