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
<B>CHORUS</B>
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, things get worse
But they say they can only get better
I try to make a dent
but it blends into 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 (8x)
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
But they say they can only get better
I try to make a dent
but it blends into 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
