Choking on Words
Verse 1
In the silence of the night,
Thoughts like shadows, (out of sight,)
Whispers trapped in a hollow chest,
Each one heavy, like a weighty vest.
I see your smile, (but I can't find,)
The courage to say what's on my mind,
Caught in a maze of what could be,
A symphony of silence haunting me.
Chorus
I'm choking on words, they're stuck in my throat,
Drowning in feelings, like a sinking boat.
Every glance is a story I wish I could tell,
But I'm lost in the echoes of this unspoken hell.
Choking on words, I'm breaking inside,
Every moment with you, I'm afraid to confide.
If I could let go, let my heart unfurl,
I'd break the silence, (but I'm choking on words.)
Verse 2
Walking the line of what's real and what's not,
Holding my breath in this tangled knot,
Your laughter dances, but I stand still,
A heart full of dreams, yet scared to spill.
These thoughts like clouds, they gather and grow,
Pouring down rain that no one will know,
Every heartbeat, a wish in disguise,
But I'm drowning in fears,( it's a bitter surprise.)
Chorus
I'm choking on words, they're stuck in my throat,
Drowning in feelings, (like a sinking boat.)
Every glance is a story I wish I could tell,
But I'm lost in the echoes of this unspoken hell.
Choking on words, I'm breaking inside,
Every moment with you, I'm afraid to confide.
If I could let go, let my heart unfurl,
I'd break the silence,( but I'm choking on words.)
Bridge
So here I am, on the edge of a dream,
Hoping you'll see through this silent scream.
If courage could rise like the sun in the dawn,
Maybe these chains of silence could finally be gone.
Chorus
I'm choking on words, they're stuck in my throat,
Drowning in feelings, like a sinking boat.
Every glance is a story I wish I could tell,
But I'm lost in the echoes of this unspoken hell.
Choking on words, (I'm breaking inside,)
Every moment with you, I'm afraid to confide.
If I could let go, let my heart unfurl,
I'd break the silence,( but I'm choking on words.)
Outro
So I'll gather my strength, take a breath, take a chance,
Maybe one day, I'll find my voice in this dance.
Until then, I'll linger, (caught in this swirl,)
Just a heart full of love, still choking on words.
