The Quiet That Isn’t Quiet by Jay Jeong un Yang

 

I created a song using Suno titled 'The Quiet That Isn’t Quiet', and the lyrics were inspired by the Shakespearean play Hamlet.

The artwork featured in the videos was created by me using ChatGPT. 

This is version 1.

Lyrics:

Verse 1
The walls don’t ask me who I am
They only echo what I say
I pace the same familiar ground
Like thoughts that never walk away
The room is still, but I am not
My heartbeat argues with my head
Every word I never speak
Is something louder left unsaid

Pre-Chorus
Silence isn’t empty here
It’s crowded with my doubt
I open doors inside my mind
That I can’t close back out

Chorus
I talk to myself more than anyone
Like I’m both witness and accused
My mind is louder than the room
There’s nothing here that isn’t bruised
I lose myself in every thought
Like mirrors facing mirrors deep
I’m wide awake inside my head
In a place that never sleeps

Verse 2
I rehearse every possible ending
To conversations I’ll never start
I cross-examine every feeling
Like truth is something I can’t trust in my heart
They say the world is out there waiting
But I can’t hear it through the noise
Because every voice inside of me
Is arguing about the choice

Pre-Chorus
I search for meaning in each moment
Until the moment disappears
I’m drowning slowly in the questions
That I’ve been asking for years

Chorus
I talk to myself more than anyone
Like I’m my only company
My mind is louder than the room
Than the world will ever be
I lose myself in every thought
Every “what if” turns to stone
I built a kingdom in my head
And locked myself here all alone

Bridge
Maybe I’m afraid of silence
Because it shows me who I am
Maybe I keep talking inward
So I don’t have to understand
Maybe if I stop the thinking
I’ll hear something real and true
But I don’t know who’s left inside
If I stop arguing with you

Final Chorus
I talk to myself more than anyone
Until my name feels strange to hear
My mind is louder than the room
Louder than my own heartbeat here
I lose myself in every thought
Like fog that doesn’t let me see
If I could quiet all the voices
Would there still be something left of me?

Outro
If I could silence all this noise…
Would I finally be alone?
Or would I finally hear
My own voice
For the first time.
