Lyric Sheet                                                                                                            Country Song 2 Title - Carried Words

[Verse 1 – Male]

I’ve lived in the silence, where the loudest pain won’t speak

Carried words too heavy, buried down so deep

Regrets too old to fix, too far gone to chase

So I tucked 'em in my pocket and wore that brave face.

 

[Verse 2 – Female]

I smiled through the heartbreak, laughed when I could’ve cried

Wrote a hundred unsent letters that all got left behind

Swallowed all my sorrow, tried to make it right

But the truth gets heavy when it hides at night.

 

[Chorus – Duet, Alternating & Harmony]

This is for the heartbreaks we never shared

(And the quiet cries we didn’t dare)

The apologies we never made

(And the love we left too long delayed)

The aching hearts, the broken songs

(We carried those words too long, too long.)

 

[Verse 3 – Male]

The shadows keep on calling, but the dawn brings a light

I gather up the pieces, I’m ready for the fight

Every word unspoken, a battle we've begun

But healing starts with honesty, and trust is how we run.

 

[Verse 4 – Female]

I learned to find my courage beneath this faded sky

Each tear that fell a lesson, each whisper, a goodbye

In the quiet of the night, I hear the truth unfold

It’s time to shed the silence and let the story be told.

 

[Chorus – Duet, Alternating & Harmony]

This is for the heartbeats we let slip away

(And the words we chose to never say)

The dreams we had are not too far

(If we lift the weight, we’ll find our stars)

Let's mend the strings and play along

(We carried those words too long, too long.)

 

[Bridge – Duet]

So let’s open up the floodgates, let the river flow

With each revelation, we’re learning how to grow

No more hiding in the shadows of the past that we’ve known

Together we can take the steps, we’re never on our own.

 

[Chorus – Duet, Alternating & Harmony]

This is for the moments we’ll finally embrace

(And the love we found in our sacred space)

The healing hearts, those written songs

(We’ll carry our words right where they belong.)

 

[Outro – Duet]

So let’s speak of the future, with our voices aligned

(Our stories intertwined)

With every heartfelt whisper, a new chance to start

(We carried those words, and now they’re ours.
