A friend always told me
To speak when necessary
I took it to my heart for life.
Even when I’m lonely
Of many words I’m wary
Unless I want to show my mind.
Sometimes I wonder, though
How many thoughts I’ve buried
Instead of using them to fight
Now nobody calls me,
Even when I’m worried
Laying awake, all alone at night.

A friend always told me
To speak when necessary

Even when I’m lonely
Of many words I’m wary
Unless I want to show my mind.
Sometimes I wonder, though
How many thoughts I’ve buried
Instead of using them to fight
Now nobody calls me,
Even when I’m worried
Laying awake, all alone at night.
