They tell me to keep my mouth shut
How..
How can I stay silent
When the whole world around me
Is Slipping out the window
She's starting to see
She has a glimpse
Of why
I don't talk much
And why
I never smile like I used to

I want to speak out
Scream for help
Because it's been
Three Years
Of hiding in the shadows
And living
On back roads

I have screamed out
A few voices
They call back
To me
To find me
And bring me
Safety
Assurance
Stability
Hope
A new Chance
To survive
To have a
Future

So I will not stay in the shadows
My skin's ripping apart
I NEED light
I  need someone to know
And someone
Who is willing to hug me late at night
Or kiss my worries away for a moment
Cuz this life
Is being taken from my hands
I've lost the grip I once had
Now it's time to get it back
I'll scream and shout
Till my voice is gone
