I wouldn't speak my mind |
|
I didn't want to make them mad |
|
I looked up to them |
|
for the courage I thought I didn't have |
|
I never bothered to lift a finger |
|
to make my point |
|
Now I'm spelling it out |
|
and nobody's listening |
|
It's hard to take it to heart |
|
It hurts to be apart |
|
But I can't watch and not be heard |
|
The days go by and things get worse |
|
but they say they can only get better |
|
I try to make a dent |
|
but it blends in with all the damage |
|
I try to look the other way |
|
but there's a mirror behind me |
|
I see images of what can be done |
|
It seems like I'm the only one |
|
I wouldn't speak my mind |
