***No One Heard Me Cry***

---

**(Intro – soft female whisper over ambient synth)**

*I saw your silence...

And I recognized myself in it.*

---

**(Verse 1 – Male vocal, fragile but deep)**

I built a house from quiet rooms

Where echoes slept and shadows bloomed

My lullabies were slammed doors

Cracks in walls and silent wars

They told me boys don't break or bleed

So I just learned to hide the need

I smiled through teeth that clenched at night

And cried where no one kept a light

---

**(Chorus – Female lead, sensual & haunting)**

**[F]** No one heard me cry…

Behind those walls, I died

Not all wounds leave blood

Some just flood… from the inside

**[M – softly underneath]**

From the inside…

They never saw me drown…

---

**(Verse 2 – Male vocal, closer, more intimate)**

You touched me like I wasn’t glass

But darling, I was built to crack

You kissed the parts that no one saw

And made a home beneath my flaws

But even now, when you are near

I flinch at love, I flinch at fear

Your skin on mine – it feels like grace

But I still hide behind my face

---

**(Chorus – Both, layered sensual harmony)**

**[F]** No one heard me cry…

**[M]** I used to whisper to the sky

**[F]** Not all screams are loud

**[M]** Some are buried proud

**[Both]**

And no one ever asked me why…

---

**(Bridge – Spoken word over slow beat)**

**[M]** At night, I press my head against the silence

Wondering if anyone remembers that little boy

Curled up under broken stars

Holding in the flood

So he could be someone’s strength someday

**[F – whispering gently behind]**

*You were never meant to hold it all…*

---

**(Final Chorus – Soft, stripped down, almost a whisper)**

**[F]** No one heard me cry…

But maybe you... you see me now

**[M]** I’m still learning how to breathe

When love feels loud…

---

**(Outro – Female solo, a cappella fade-out)**

*No one heard me cry…

But you…

You might…*
