I cannot say goodbye
I have learnt to bow my head and stay silent
The silence is killing me
But if death is the price to pay for courage
I will accept my sentence in silence
I will plead with God
I will hope for the best
But I will stay silent

I cannot speak the words I long to say
I cannot be the person I loathe
I cannot act against my beliefs
I cannot
I will not
But the silence is killing me

I want to climb on top of a mountain
With you
I want to climb into your arms
At night
I want to be your person and for you to be
Mine
