VELKIRA – DON'T LET THE SILENCE DECIDE | Female Vocal Metal

Some endings are never spoken. They are decided by the silence between two hearts. DON'T LET THE SILENCE DECIDE is an emotional female vocal metal ballad by VELKIRA, blending cinematic piano, atmospheric guitars, powerful drums, expressive bass and soaring melodic vocals with a dark gothic and symphonic metal atmosphere. The official music video follows a solitary woman through a rain-covered hotel, empty city streets, a late-night café and the underground metro as darkness slowly gives way to dawn. The song explores emotional distance, unspoken feelings, loneliness and the moment when silence begins making the choices that two people were too afraid to make. For listeners who enjoy female-fronted metal, emotional metal ballads, gothic metal, symphonic metal and cinematic rock.

Who will find you when you’re lost? We could bury every feeling But the silence has a cost Who will call you from the darkness? Who will pull you from the edge? We were never meant to vanish In the words we never said When the fear has lost its language When the anger sheds its skin Maybe underneath the wreckage We can learn to live again I can face the deepest darkness I can walk through fire and rain But I cannot fight beside you If you keep me locked away I WOULD RATHER HEAR THE TRUTH LIKE A BLADE AGAINST MY CHEST THAN WATCH A THOUSAND SILENT NIGHTS BURY WHAT WE NEVER CONFESSED TEAR THE WALLS DOWN LET THE WOUNDS SHOW GIVE ME ONE REASON NOT TO LET GO DON’T LET THE SILENCE DECIDE DON’T LET THE LAST EMBER DIE THERE’S STILL A FIRE BENEATH THESE RUINS WAITING TO RETURN TO LIFE DON’T LEAVE ME LOST IN THE THUNDER DON’T LET THE SHADOWS TAKE YOUR HEART WE CAN GATHER ALL THE PIECES EVEN AFTER THEY FALL APART Before we say our last goodbye Before we leave this love behind If there’s still a chance between us Don’t let the silence decide Who will stand when the walls come down? Who will find you in the night? We are more than all the damage We are more than this goodbye Who will call you from the darkness? Who will pull you from the edge? We don’t have to lose each other For the words we never said If you leave, leave with the sunrise Not as a shadow in my mind If you stay, then stand beside me Don’t let the silence decide Don’t let the silence decide
