Lyrics
Somewhere in the Silence

Verse 1
There’s a radio hum in the kitchen light
Coffee cup rings on the counter white
You’re staring at a day you don’t wanna face
Shoelaces dragging, heart out of place

There’s a voicemail you still haven’t played
There’s a promise that quietly frayed
You keep saying that you’re out of words
But there’s promise in the hidden of the unheard verse

Pre-Chorus
You think that you’re empty, that you’ve got nothing left to share
But listen close, there’s a heartbeat writing lines in the air

Chorus
’Cause a song always comes from somewhere
From a crack in the wall, from a whispered prayer
From the nights when you almost let go
From the tears that you hide where no one knows

From the letters that you never did send
From the ache of the loss of your oldest friend
From the courage just to stand there and care
A song always comes from somewhere

Verse 2
There’s a box in the back of your closet floor
Ticket stubs from a half-broke tour
Polaroids fading into soft gray smoke
Of a version of you that the world once spoke

There’s a town that you swore you would leave behind
But it still plays chords in the back of your mind
Every “what if” that you try to ignore
Is a rhythm in your footsteps on the grocery store floor

Pre-Chorus
You say all the best lines were taken long ago
But your scars are a language that nobody else could know

Chorus
’Cause a song always comes from somewhere
From the crack of the bat in a summer fair
From the last time you watched the sun fall down
On a quiet two-lane outside your hometown

From the fight where you finally said “no more”
From the ring of the keys when you locked that door
From the wind in your hair as you left it all there
A song always comes from somewhere

Bridge
From your father’s hands on the steering wheel
Singing off-key to the songs you’d feel
From your mother’s voice in the Sunday pew
Harmony shaky but honest and true

From the hospital hall where you learned to pray
To the ceiling tiles just to get through the day
From the first time someone saw you, really saw you there
That’s where the melody starts, hanging in the air


Every moment that nearly broke you
Every truth you were scared to share
All the silence that almost choked you
Is ink in the song you’ll wear

Final Chorus
’Cause a song always comes from somewhere
From the crack in your voice when you say you care
From the way that you tremble but still stay
From the choice to keep walking anyway

From the dreams that you’re scared might be too late
From the hand that you held at the garden gate
From the simple fact that you’re still standing here
A song always comes from somewhere
Yeah, your song always comes from somewhere

Outro
So when you feel like an empty line
Just waiting on a rhyme out there
Close your eyes, let your breathing keep the time
A song always comes from somewhere
