MUSIC FOR SALE

Verse 1
The room keeps talking when no one’s there
Every word collides with the open air
I fold my hands, let the noise roll past
Some storms don’t need an answer back

Pre-Chorus
They lean in close, they wait for sound
But stillness holds its own ground

Chorus
I hold the scepter of silence steady
Not raised high, not swung wild
While the walls all shake and pleads with me already
I stand still, undefiled
I don’t give where the pressure lands
I choose the quiet in my hands

Post-Chorus
Stand still — I don’t move
Hold fast — I don’t prove

Verse 2
Every signal screams to be believed
Every spark says react to me
But there’s weight in what I don’t declare
A calm reply that’s never said

Pre-Chorus
They sharpen tones like blades of air
I step aside, I’m never there

Chorus
I hold the scepter of silence steady
Not raised high, not swung wild
While the walls all shake and pleads with me already
I stand still, undefiled
I don’t give where the pressure lands
I choose the quiet in my hands

Instrumental Break

Bridge
No vow spoken, no signal given
Still I’m anchored, still I’m driven
When the world demands a sound
I let restraint be what resounds

Build

Chorus
I hold the scepter of silence steady
Not raised high, not swung wild
While the walls all shake and pleads with me already
I stand still, undefiled
I don’t give where the pressure lands
I choose the quiet in my hands

Outro
No noise can take what I command
The quiet answers where I stand
