What Words Must Be

#rock Text- [Verse 1] I scoured the quiet hours for a sound Something to close the doors we left ajar But every voice keeps speaking all alone The rooms get louder while the walls fall down [Pre-Chorus] If I could hold them all together somehow Maybe we'd hear through the noise [Chorus] What words must be found To dry the tears of everyone at once? Every heart we gather at once So people truly hear one another [Verse ] I trace the seams where every silence broke And find the bruises no one wants to name We carry banners we can barely read Each one a prayer that somebody will stay [Pre-Chorus] If I could sing them past the static and doubt Maybe we'd finally find a way out [Chorus] What words must be found To dry the tears of everyone at once? Every heart we gather at once So people truly hear one another [Bridge] We pass each other like two weather systems Two storms that never learn to share the rain But I keep reaching with a wounded hand Hoping the weight of it won't break us again [Chorus] What words must be found To dry the tears of everyone at once? Every heart we gather at once So people truly hear one another
