Lyrics
You turned the weight inside your chest
Into a language we could understand
You gave a name to the emptiness
Hiding behind a crowded room
Made every fracture sound honest
Made every shadow tell the truth
For every kid who felt invisible
For every heart without a voice
You took the chaos no one noticed
And turned the noise into a choice
You never knew our names
But somehow knew our pain
And when we could not speak
You screamed it in our place
The world still hears you
In every voice that learned to breathe
You made a home inside the sound
For those who had nowhere to be
The world still hears you
Your fire never left the stage
A life can end
But what it gave
Can never fade away
Never fade away
Never fade away
You changed the shape of heavy music
Let rage and vulnerability meet
You showed that strength could sound like breaking
And honesty could still be fierce
Now generations carry pieces
Of every truth you left behind
Your voice still cuts across the silence
And finds us at the perfect time
You never knew our names
But somehow knew our pain
And when the darkness closed
Your songs remained
The world still hears you
In every voice that learned to breathe
You made a home inside the sound
For those who had nowhere to be
The world still hears you
Your fire never left the stage
A life can end
But what it gave
Can never fade away
You were more than every headline
More than the night that took you home
You are the moment someone listens
And understands they are not alone
You are not gone
You became the sound
The world still hears you
In every heart your music found
When all our words collapse again
Your voice still carries through the sound
The world still hears you
Beyond the years and beyond the pain
The man may leave
The light may dim
But what you gave remains
What you gave remains
What you gave remains
You never knew our names
But you helped us find our own
Thank you, Chester
