In "Speak" by Evans Blue, grief after losing a loved one becomes a fight to stay alive. The pain feels like a truth that could consume everything, and the voice in their head insists the world has no place for them. Words form but refuse to leave the mouth, trapping the need to confess and release. Choosing fate over hiding, they cling to hope and refuse to let this death become their own. The song reaches toward survival, insisting it is not too late to find a reason to keep breathing.
Speak Lyrics by Evans Blue
These are not merely words
Cause I trust you
Will it matter?
Will it hurt me not to?
Took a turn for the worse
Since I lost you
Flawed this heart
Lies fixed inside you
I’ve had a lot, time has not been kind to
Myself, or maybe it’s the way I’ve try to
Find you, bleed – remind myself to breathe
Through the lies, I believe
I can set myself free
We can’t get back this life
Can’t let this pain be my
Truth when it hurts inside
I find all the words
But my mouth won’t let me
Speak
No my mouth won’t let me
Speak
Yes I can breathe
But nothing has prepared me
For the worse – for the way things might be
Break the lock
Choosing fate over hiding
Impossible or not
There is hope still inside
We can’t get back this life
Can’t let this pain be my
Truth when it hurts inside
I find all the words
But my mouth won’t let me
Speak
No my mouth won’t let me
Speak
We can’t go back, oh God
And how do I
Defeat this voice in my head
Always screaming
This world does not need me, I
Cannot rewind
I can’t let it win this time
Set myself free
I’m not ready to leave this life
It’s not too late to find
A reason I’ll survive
Burned and I’ve bled
I cannot let the death of you
Be the death of me too
We can’t get back this life
Can’t let this pain be my
Truth when it hurts inside
I find all the words
But my mouth won’t let me
Speak
No my mouth won’t let me
Speak
