Hello! I'm not dead. Sorry for such the delay in uploads, youtube has had me feeling weird lately. Just with the fandom getting smaller and the community I used to love changing, it's been hard to process. That's what geared me to make this song in the first place, along with using my own experiences and feelings for a little extra piece. Think of it as a vent piece that will be two parts. (as stated at the end of the video) This part mainly focuses around the idea of staying quiet and out of the way so that someone is not rejected or shunned, to put on a happy face and ignore that you're not doing okay in order to please everyone else. To become the person everyone wants you to be, even though what you want is the exact opposite. Hence why it's called "Silence" The second part will be called "Louder" and focuses on the other side of the coin, wanting to speak out and be heard inside of hiding in the background. The pieces compliment each other and I hope you will listen to both when they come out. Both songs are very personal to me.

I can not be breaking down They’ll all watching, I’m fine now There’s no need to disagree That I’m hurting I’m not hurting But when you take a step closer Please don’t mind that I will take one back And the only thing that you hear is… Wait, why are you leaving? Please don’t leave me now There no time for breaking down I’ll be better for you now I won’t ever disagree See, I’m smiling So you want me These tears that appear in my eyes Please ignore them and stay by my side I promise that you’ll only hear Silence
