Silence the Inner War

Calm in Chaos

[Verse 1]
The wind is rising, the world spins fast,
Footsteps scatter, shadows cast.
But here inside, a quiet grows,
A steady river no one knows.

[Chorus]
Breathe in deep, let it flow,
Find the stillness down below.
The storm may dance, the waves may rise,
But calm is here behind your eyes.

[Verse 2]
The neon flickers, voices climb,
The ticking clock bends space and time.
Yet underneath the push and pull,
A hidden thread is soft and full.

[Bridge]
It’s not out there, it’s not in sound,
It’s not in words that spin around.
It’s in the pause, the space between,
The quiet hum where thoughts grow clean.

[Chorus] (repeat, fading)
Breathe in deep, let it flow,
Find the stillness down below…

[Verse 3]
The road unwinds, the wheels still turn,
Fires flicker, embers burn.
But in the hush between the sound,
That’s where solid ground is found.

[Outro]
Let the rush fade to air,
Let the weight disappear.
In the stillness, find your name,
In the silence, all remains.

===========================================================

Less Nervous

[Verse 1]
Heart beats fast, hands feel tight,
Clock keeps ticking, nerves take flight.
But the ground is strong beneath my feet,
A steady rhythm, soft and sweet.

[Chorus]
Breathe in slow, let it ride,
Ease the rush, step inside.
No need to hurry, no need to fight,
Let the weight just feel light.

[Verse 2]
Voices rise, the world spins loud,
Thoughts like thunder, heavy clouds.
But there’s a space where time moves slow,
A quiet place I used to know.

[Bridge]
No need to fix, no need to chase,
Let it come at its own pace.
Everything shifts, everything sways,
Let it settle, let it stay.

[Verse 3]
Footsteps softer, shoulders low,
Breath comes easy, ebb and flow.
Storm still moves but I don’t mind,
I’m in step, I’m aligned.

[Outro]
Less nervous, more at ease,
Less holding, more release.
Let the moment unfold wide,
No more rush, just let it ride.

=============================================================

Worries About the Future

[Verse 1]
Sky turns gray, headlines shout,
Another storm, another doubt.
But here and now, my feet are still,
One deep breath bends the will.

[Chorus]
Let tomorrow take its time,
The sun will rise, the stars will shine.
Nothing broken, nothing stays,
The river moves, it finds its way.

[Verse 2]
Plans unravel, doors stay closed,
Questions whisper, answers doze.
But every road I’ve walked before
Led me right here, nothing more.

[Bridge]
I don’t have to chase the sky,
Or hold the world, or wonder why.
What will come will always be,
And I’ll be there, just wait and see.

[Verse 3]
Not my hands that shape the wind,
Not my mind that turns the spin.
I’ll walk steady, I’ll walk true,
Step by step, that’s all I’ll do.

[Outro]
Let tomorrow take its time,
The sun will rise, the stars will shine.
Nothing broken, nothing stays,
The river moves, it finds its way.

================================================================

Silence the Inner War

[Verse 1]
Voices rising, push and pull,
Too many battles, heart too full.
Echoes clashing, lines are drawn,
But the fight fades with the dawn.

[Chorus]
Lay it down, let it be,
No more struggle, set it free.
Storm inside don’t have to roar,
Close your eyes, silence the war.

[Verse 2]
Doubt keeps knocking, fear moves in,
Memories whisper where I’ve been.
But the past don’t own my name,
And the future feels the same.

[Bridge]
Not every thought deserves a fight,
Not every wrong makes a right.
Some things break, some things mend,
Some things just don’t need an end.

[Verse 3]
Breath is steady, hands uncurled,
Weight dissolves from my world.
Fires cool, the echoes fade,
A quiet peace is softly made.

[Outro]
Lay it down, let it be,
No more struggle, set it free.
Storm inside don’t have to roar,
Close your eyes, silence the war.

======================================================================

Healing After Tragedy

[Verse 1]
Ashes settle, light turns dim,
Echoes fade but don’t give in.
Time moves slow, breath is thin,
But even now, life begins.

[Chorus]
Step by step, day by day,
Night won’t last, dawn will stay.
Heart still beats, hope still grows,
Healing comes, soft and slow.

[Verse 2]
Memories whisper, heavy hands,
Carrying weight I don’t understand.
But even in the broken ground,
Something lost can still be found.

[Bridge]
Not all wounds will disappear,
Not all pain just fades to clear.
But love remains, a steady spark,
A guiding light inside the dark.

[Verse 3]
The road moves forward, the past still stays,
Both can live in different ways.
I’ll walk on with open hands,
Not to forget, but to understand.

[Outro]
Step by step, day by day,
Night won’t last, dawn will stay.
Heart still beats, hope still grows,
Healing comes, soft and slow.

===================================================================

Ease My Money Worries

[Verse 1]
Numbers rising, numbers fall,
Bills keep knocking, voices call.
But worry don’t add, worry don’t save,
It just weighs down like a tidal wave.

[Chorus]
Breathe in deep, let it go,
Trust the river, let it flow.
What I need, I will find,
The road unfolds in its own time.

[Verse 2]
Counting dollars, counting days,
Chasing more in a hundred ways.
But fortune shifts, like tides that turn,
What’s been lost can still return.

[Bridge]
Not just paper, not just gold,
Not just what my hands can hold.
True wealth moves, like light and air,
Already here, already there.

[Verse 3]
Less resistance, more release,
Less holding tight, more finding peace.
Money comes, money goes,
But I remain, the river flows.

[Outro]
Breathe in deep, let it go,
Trust the river, let it flow.
What I need, I will find,
The road unfolds in its own time.

===========================================================

Too Much to Do

[Verse 1]
Clock keeps turning, list runs long,
One more task, keep moving on.
Mind keeps racing, hands stay tight,
Chasing time into the night.

[Chorus]
Breathe in deep, slow it down,
One small step, feet on the ground.
Not all mountains must be climbed,
One thing done, one thing in time.

[Verse 2]
Pages stack, the phone still rings,
World keeps asking endless things.
But rushing don’t make rivers flow,
And hurry don’t mean more will grow.

[Bridge]
Let the weight slip from my hands,
Not all things go as I planned.
Some will wait, some will fade,
Some were never mine to save.

[Verse 3]
Less to carry, less to prove,
Not stuck still, just learning to move.
Some things happen, some things don’t,
Some things will, some things won’t.

[Outro]
Breathe in deep, slow it down,
One small step, feet on the ground.
Not all mountains must be climbed,
One thing done, one thing in time.

=================================================================

End of Day Gratitude

[Verse 1]
Sun sinks low, sky fades wide,
Another day rolls with the tide.
Some things went right, some went wrong,
But I’m still here, still moving on.

[Chorus]
Breathe it in, let it flow,
What I’ve learned, what I know.
Not all perfect, not all planned,
But still, I hold it in my hands.

[Verse 2]
Footsteps taken, words I’ve said,
Moments lost and plans I’ve kept.
Some were heavy, some were light,
Still, I rest here in the night.

[Bridge]
Not every storm was mine to chase,
Not every trial left a trace.
Some things heal, some things stay,
But I have lived another day.

[Verse 3]
Soft breath rising, hands at ease,
A quiet moment just to be.
Whatever came, whatever passed,
I let it go, I hold the rest.

[Outro]
Breathe it in, let it flow,
What I’ve learned, what I know.
Not all perfect, not all planned,
But still, I hold it in my hands.

===========================================================

Relax Before Exam

[Verse 1]
Pages turn, thoughts run fast,
Clock keeps ticking, moments pass.
But answers wait, they’re in my mind,
I’ve walked this road, I’ll be just fine.

[Chorus]
Breathe in deep, let it go,
Trust what’s there, trust what you know.
No need to rush, no need to fight,
The path is clear, the mind is light.

[Verse 2]
Hands feel tense, heart beats loud,
Questions rise up like a cloud.
But clouds drift, and skies turn blue,
Clarity comes when I sit true.

[Bridge]
Not every thought needs to stay,
Let them settle, clear the way.
I have learned, I have grown,
All I need, I already know.

[Verse 3]
Deep breath steady, eyes see clear,
Nothing lost, nothing to fear.
The moment comes, the moment goes,
But I stand ready, calm and close.

[Outro]
Breathe in deep, let it go,
Trust what’s there, trust what you know.
No need to rush, no need to fight,
The path is clear, the mind is light.

=============================================================

Deep Relaxing Sleep

[Verse 1]
Night falls soft, the world unwinds,
Breath grows steady, thoughts unbind.
Nothing pulling, nothing near,
Only quiet, only here.

[Chorus]
Drift on down, slow and deep,
Let the waves pull you to sleep.
No more worries, no more sound,
Just the stars and open ground.

[Verse 2]
Heavy limbs, the weight lets go,
Drifting easy, floating slow.
Moonlight whispers, dreams take flight,
All is calm, all is right.

[Bridge]
No more thinking, no more past,
Only peace, only vast.
Like a river, soft and wide,
Let it carry you inside.

[Verse 3]
Breath is warm, the air is still,
Heart beats quiet, soft and real.
Let the night embrace the day,
Rest is here, you’re safe to stay.

[Outro]
Drift on down, slow and deep,
Let the waves pull you to sleep.
No more worries, no more sound,
Just the stars and open ground.

ઊંડું આરામદાયક ઊંઘ (Ūṇḍuṁ ārāmadāyaka ūṁgha)

[Verse 1]
રાત શાંત, દુનિયા ધીમે,
શ્વાસ સ્થિર, વિચારો ઢીલાં.
કંઈ ખેંચતું નથી, કંઈ નજીક નથી,
માત્ર શાંતિ, માત્ર અહીં.

[Chorus]
ધીમે ધીમે વહેતા જાઓ, ઊંઘમાં ડૂબી જાઓ,
લહેરો તમારે ઉઠાવી જાય.
કોઈ ચિંતા નહીં, કોઈ અવાજ નહીં,
માત્ર તારા અને ખાલી ભૂમિ.

[Verse 2]
ભારે હાથ, ભારે પગ,
હળવા વહેતા, ધીમા રણઝણ.
ચાંદની બોલે, સપનાઓ ઊડી,
બધી શાંતિ, બધી શાન્તિ.

[Bridge]
કોઈ વધુ વિચાર નહીં, કોઈ જૂનું નહિ,
માત્ર શાંતિ, માત્ર શૂન્યતા.
એક નદી જેમ વહેતા જાઓ,
તમને અંદર ખેંચે.

[Verse 3]
શ્વાસ ગરમ, હવા સ્થિર,
હૃદય ધીમું, નરમ અને સાચું.
રાત દિવસને અંકલાવે,
આરામ અહીં છે, તમે સલામત છો.

[Outro]
ધીમે ધીમે વહેતા જાઓ, ઊંઘમાં ડૂબી જાઓ,
લહેરો તમારે ઉઠાવી જાય.
કોઈ ચિંતા નહીં, કોઈ અવાજ નહીં,
માત્ર તારા અને ખાલી ભૂમિ.

Sommeil Profond et Relaxant

[Verse 1]
La nuit descend, le monde s’endort,
Le souffle calme, les pensées s’accordent.
Rien ne pèse, rien n’appelle,
Juste le silence, juste l’instant.

[Chorus]
Laisse-toi porter, glisse en paix,
Que les vagues t’emportent au loin.
Plus de soucis, plus de bruit,
Juste les étoiles et l’infini.

[Verse 2]
Les bras sont lourds, le corps s’apaise,
Flottant doucement, bercé de braise.
La lune murmure, les rêves s’envolent,
Tout est calme, tout est beau.

[Bridge]
Plus de pensées, plus d’hier,
Rien qu’un souffle, rien qu’un éclair.
Comme une rivière douce et lente,
Laisse-toi couler, laisse-toi prendre.

[Verse 3]
L’air est tiède, la nuit est claire,
Le cœur repose, tout est sincère.
Le jour s’efface, le temps s’étire,
Le sommeil vient, tu peux partir.

[Outro]
Laisse-toi porter, glisse en paix,
Que les vagues t’emportent au loin.
Plus de soucis, plus de bruit,
Juste les étoiles et l’infini.

=================================================================

Tiefer, Entspannender Schlaf

[Verse 1]
Die Nacht fällt sanft, die Welt wird still,
Der Atem ruht, die Gedanken sind mild.
Nichts zieht, nichts hält mich fest,
Nur die Stille, nur der Rest.

[Chorus]
Lass dich treiben, tauche ein,
Die Wellen tragen dich ganz allein.
Keine Sorgen, kein Geräusch,
Nur die Sterne, weiter Horizont.

[Verse 2]
Schwere Glieder, sanfter Fluss,
Schwebe leise, löse den Druck.
Mondlicht flüstert, Träume flieh’n,
Alles ruhig, alles zieh’n.

[Bridge]
Keine Gedanken, keine Zeit,
Nur die Ruhe, Unendlichkeit.
Wie ein Fluss, der leise fließt,
Der dich sanft ins Nichts entlässt.

[Verse 3]
Warme Luft, die Nacht so rein,
Das Herz schlägt ruhig, weich und klein.
Der Tag vergeht, die Zeit verweht,
Nun kommt der Schlaf, der mit dir geht.

[Outro]
Lass dich treiben, tauche ein,
Die Wellen tragen dich ganz allein.
Keine Sorgen, kein Geräusch,
Nur die Sterne, weiter Horizont.

==============================================================

Sueño Profundo y Relajante

[Verse 1]
La noche cae, todo es paz,
El aire es suave, nada más.
Nada pesa, nada va,
Solo el silencio y la claridad.

[Chorus]
Déjate ir, flota en paz,
Que las olas te llevarán.
Sin preocupaciones, sin temor,
Solo las estrellas y el amor.

[Verse 2]
Cuerpo ligero, mente en calma,
Fluye el sueño, suave el alma.
La luna canta, los sueños van,
Todo es quieto, todo es paz.

[Bridge]
Sin más prisas, sin pensar,
Solo el tiempo de soltar.
Como un río que va al mar,
Déjate ir, deja fluir.

[Verse 3]
El aire es tibio, la noche fiel,
El corazón late con miel.
El día se va, la luz también,
Duerme en calma, todo está bien.

[Outro]
Déjate ir, flota en paz,
Que las olas te llevarán.
Sin preocupaciones, sin temor,
Solo las estrellas y el amor.
