[Intro]
I kept my silence polished white
A fragile cup for every fight
You touched my mouth and called it grace
I learned to disappear in place

[Verse]
There was a time I used to sing
Before your winter kissed the spring
Before the walls began to know
The songs I buried soft and low
You loved me best when I was still
A perfect shape against your will
A porcelain throat, a painted smile
A voice asleep beneath the tile

[Pre-Chorus]
But silence has a secret sound
It grows like thunder underground
The more I swallow, the more I break
The more my hidden heart will wake

[Chorus]
My porcelain throat
Is cracking in the dark
Every word I never spoke
Is rising like a spark
My porcelain throat
Cannot hold the pain
I may sound beautiful
But I am breaking again

[Verse]
You said my anger made me strange
You said desire had to change
You praised the calm I learned to fake
And never saw my fingers shake
The mirror kept my borrowed face
A doll inside a mourning lace
But underneath the quiet skin
A buried choir burned within

[Pre-Chorus]
But silence has a secret sound
It grows like thunder underground
The more I swallow, the more I break
The more my hidden heart will wake

[Chorus]
My porcelain throat
Is cracking in the dark
Every word I never spoke
Is rising like a spark
My porcelain throat
Cannot hold the pain
I may sound beautiful
But I am breaking again

[Interlude]
White dust
Red room
Soft lips
Cold bloom
No voice
No choice
Still hear
My voice

[Bridge]
I do not want to be adored
Like something fragile, still, and stored
I do not want your velvet praise
If it requires quieter days
My love was not a painted thing
It had a pulse, it had a wing
And if it shatters when I cry
Then let the pretty pieces fly

[Breakdown]
I speak
I shake
I bend
I break
I rise
I choke
I burn
I spoke

[Build-up]
The sound is coming
The glass is thin
The old room trembles
Beneath my skin
The sound is coming
Your hands let go
The voice you buried
Begins to grow

[Chorus]
My porcelain throat
Is cracking in the dark
Every word I never spoke
Is rising like a spark
My porcelain throat
Cannot hold the pain
I may sound beautiful
But I am breaking again

[Chorus]
My porcelain throat
Will not be your shrine
Every broken note
Is finally mine
My porcelain throat
Bleeds into the rain
I may sound beautiful
But I am living again

[Outro]
The silence falls in pieces now
Like moonlight from a broken crown
I taste the blood, I feel the note
Escape my porcelain throat
