Backstory:
Focused Language was formed in the summer of 2012 in the vibrant cultural city of San Francisco, California. The band consists of four members: lead vocalist and keyboardist Eric Roberts, guitarist Daniel Hart, bassist James Evans, and drummer Peter Graham. The quartet shared a love for music that echoes with deep emotions and thought-provoking lyrics, so they decided to come together and express their creativity and passion through music.
Their journey was filled with long hours spent in shabby basement studios, numerous coffee-infused late-night songwriting sessions, and countless gigs in local bars. Focused Language rose from being a neighborhood band to gaining a devoted following nationwide. Their music, often seen as a lyrical guide to the human emotional terrain, resonates with many, and their passion for making music is evident in every note they play.

“Words in Silence”
Full song lyrics:
(Verse 1)
Am – Em – G – D
Am
In the quiet of the night, when the world’s asleep,
Em
I find solace in the silence, where my thoughts run deep.
G
I’m searching for the words, the ones that are hard to say,
D
In the echoes of my mind, where they often stay.
(Chorus)
C – G – Am – Em
C
Words in silence, a language so pure,
G
It speaks louder than words, of that I’m sure.
Am
In the quietest corners of our hearts, we’ll find,
Em
The most profound words, the ones we left behind.
(Verse 2)
Am – Em – G – D
Am
In the silence between heartbeats, in the whispers of the wind,
Em
There’s a language that’s spoken, where love begins.
G
In every silent tear, in every unsaid prayer,
D
There’s a word that’s waiting, for someone to care.
(Chorus)
C – G – Am – Em
C
Words in silence, a language so pure,
G
It speaks louder than words, of that I’m sure.
Am
In the quietest corners of our hearts, we’ll find,
Em
The most profound words, the ones we left behind.
(Rpt. Chorus)
