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
