Title:

“Echoes of the Silent”

Full Song lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Am G D Am
Living in a world, filled with silent screams,
C G D Em
Echoing through the night, lost in dreams.
Am G D Am
We’re the voice, that won’t be stilled,
C G D Em
An unstoppable force, a will to be filled.

[Chorus]
G D Em C
We are the shrill majority,
G D Em
Singing our notes of authority,
G D Em C
Can’t silence us with your priority,
G D Em
We are the shrill majority.

[Verse 2]
Am G D Am
Can’t ignore the sounds, that we create,
C G D Em
Hear the whispers, it’s not too late.
Am G D Am
Our harmony drowns, the voice of hate,
C G D Em
Together we stand, to change our fate.

[Chorus]
G D Em C
We are the shrill majority,
G D Em
Marching to our own authority,
G D Em C
Won’t be silenced by your priority,
G D Em
We are the shrill majority.

Favorite Fan Testimonial:

My name is Sara Finnegan and I am proud to call myself Shrill Majority’s number one fan. Their music is not just melodious, but also thought-provoking. They make you groove and think simultaneously. I’ve been following them since their garage band days, and to see them grow and reach such heights has been truly amazing. They are not just musicians, they are revolutionaries, using their music as a tool to instigate change and give a voice to the voiceless. They make me feel seen, heard, and most importantly, they make me feel like I belong. That’s why Shrill Majority is my favorite band, and I believe they always will be.
