The noise has subsided, the city's low hum

Leaving just quiet, where new worries come

No voice but my own, inside this dark head

Confronting the shadows, I've left unsaid

I peel back the layers, of chrome and of lies

To see what's truly staring, back from my eyes

A naked emotion, a fragile, new fear

What happens to me, if no one is near

Staring from within, the shadows begin

Where the true self emerges, letting all the fears in

In this silent, dark place, finding my own space

Learning my own truth, finding my own grace

I trace every circuit, every past broken line

The glitches I buried, I now make them mine

The flaws I ignored, in the heat of the chase

Now bloom in the quiet, filling every space

No more distractions, no one to impress

Just raw, honest feelings, in this silent distress

This freedom's a mirror, showing what's real

The burdens I carried, the wounds I now feel

Staring from within, the shadows begin

Where the true self emerges, letting all the fears in

In this silent, dark place, finding my own space

Learning my own truth, finding my own grace

I used to hide secrets, in another's embrace

But now the deep waters, reflect my true face

The truth stings a little, but healing can start

A brave new beginning, for a solitary heart

This quiet's a mirror, revealing the cost

Of all that was given, of all that was lost

Staring from within, the shadows begin

Where the true self emerges, letting all the fears in

In this silent, dark place, finding my own space

Learning my own truth, finding my own grace

Learning my own truth... my own grace
