lyrics

The Quiet One - KINLEY

All my childhood memories involve someone dying.
Pictures on the floor I hold my uncle’s hand he’s crying.
Oh this is me, I’m the quiet one. (I’m the quiet one).

They always said to me ‘speak up’, but I feel like I’m yelling.
Never learned how to project so ‘listen up’ I tell them.
Oh this is me, I’m the quiet one. (I’m the quiet one).

Crows and angels in my life show mystery and magic.
Start to understand them be it hopeful be it tragic.
Oh this is me, I’m the quiet one. (I’m the quiet one).

I wish you could have read my mind.
‘Cause when I tried to speak it was always silent.
But nothing’s gonna stop me now.

Decades later I’m just getting comfortable in my skin.
Dancing always makes me feel like I’m alive again.
Now they hear me with a microphone no need for yelling.
I’ve got things to say that should be heard - I’m here to win.

I wish you could have read my mind.
‘Cause when I tried to speak it was always silent.
But nothing’s gonna stop me now.

*solo*

I used to overthink the words and people spoke for me.
But now I’ve learned to let them go and now I am set free.

I wish you could have read my mind.
‘Cause when I tried to speak it was always silent.
But nothing’s gonna stop me now.

I wish you could have read my mind.
‘Cause when I tried to speak it was always silent.
But nothing’s gonna stop, nothing’s gonna stop, nothing’s gonna, nothing’s gonna stop me now.
I’m the quiet one.
