I Can’t Stop Listening
-
-
Chasing dots, learning rhythm
Caught inside this light prism
Saw myself, torn by fear
Slowed down just to hear
But I can’t be shown the love
Nothing fits me like a glove
My head spins with filtered truth
I can’t choose — so I lose you
I’m afraid of what I mirror
Thoughts scream but never sound clearer
No one hears me when I speak
Now my soul just starts to leak
Yeah, the truth is a shaky thing
It all depends on who you sing
But I can’t stop listening
Silent floods, inner war
Hope drips from a closing door
I reach out, but I retreat
Wounds that no one else can treat
I try to be someone new
But every echo leads to you
No map, no line, no proof
Just this loop of fading truth
I’m afraid of what I mirror
Thoughts scream but never sound clearer
No one hears me when I speak
Now my soul just starts to leak
Yeah, the truth is a shaky thing
It all depends on who you sing
But I can’t stop listening
If I scream into the void
Will the silence be destroyed?
Will the prism start to bend
Or is this how the story ends?
I’m afraid of what I mirror
Even silence feels much nearer
No one hears me when I speak
So I drown beneath the leak
Yeah, the truth is a sacred sting
Still, I sing — I have to sing
Because I can’t stop listening
A Song for the Unheard
Some truths aren’t shouted.
They seep out.
They linger in silence.
They echo in the minds of those who carry too much and say too little.
“I Can’t Stop Listening” is not just a song. It’s a reflection. A piece for anyone who has felt misread, unheard, or fractured by the weight of their own thoughts. It’s the sound of searching for clarity in the noise. It’s the expression of what it means to feel deeply in a world that prefers you muted.
The Sound of Inner Conflict
The lyrics were written in a moment of internal unraveling—a time when my sense of identity blurred under pressure, and I found myself caught in patterns I couldn’t yet name. I was chasing rhythm, trying to understand where fear ended and I began.
“I’m afraid of what I mirror
Thoughts scream but never sound clearer
No one hears me when I speak
Now my soul just starts to leak”
This wasn’t written from a place of resolution. It came from the leak before the break. From the tension of knowing that silence was no longer safety—it was suffocation.
A Framework Beneath the Emotion
Even in its vulnerability, this song is grounded in the structure of the Moral Catalyst Framework.
Because truth without context can be dismissed.
And emotion, when shaped with intention, becomes insight.
This is not just art. It is an applied ethical tool in action.
Constructive Catalyst
This song is not reactionary. It transforms pain into clarity—into something others can connect with, rather than be burdened by.
Adaptive Catalyst
Its structure is nontraditional, fluid, and sometimes unresolved. But that mirrors the real-life experience of growth—messy, nonlinear, but meaningful.
Necessary Catalyst
For many, emotional expression is the only available form of agency. This song exists because silence was no longer an ethical option.
When You’re Unheard, Speak Anyway
Releasing this piece felt risky. Not because I didn’t believe in it—but because I knew someone else might. And because, at times, the fear of being misinterpreted can feel more intimidating than staying invisible.
But this work was never about perfection. It was about truth.
“I Can’t Stop Listening” is for those who overthink, who overfeel, who speak in quiet rooms that don’t always respond. It’s for those who echo, loop, and crack under pressure—but continue to show up anyway.
You don’t need to have all the answers.
You don’t need to present with polish.
You only need to be willing to stand in your truth.
