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
