about

"This song is about quietness. Growing up, I was always told I had a quiet voice. Friends and family would ask me to speak up. It was like being told to have a stronger handshake. It was frustrating because I felt I was speaking at full volume and that I physically couldn’t speak louder. I used to dislike this part of me, but now I embrace it. Quietness is humility, and there’s strength in that. Unspoken is about all this and how quietness factors into my life now, in relationships and music and romance." –Stephen Becker

lyrics

Barely half awake I stood
Built this house on firewood
Make me make me take the time to notice
Hurry up and get there first
Mumble a satanic verse
Quitting time is getting me promoted
And I could I go rely
On what you don’t say
The feeling unspoken
Microscopic universe
Symphonies can make it work
Honey is a controversial subject
Something’s moving in the mist
Inwardly, a calm that shifts
Parody the pressure that they sold us
And I could go on
With other cliches
A labor of love
So keep it at bay
It’s something that I might do
I might do
