Be quiet Don't fidget Don't waste their time Don't tell them your problems Don't tell them your hurts If you tell them your problems Their brokenness will be your fault!
Surrounded by birds Was I the cage? Be quiet don't fidget, don't overwhelm them Don't open your heart or they'll fly away Don't be needy or greedy, just go to your room They're busy with others, there's no time for you They have too many problems to talk about yours If you tell them the truth they will break and leave you
Stay silent, Don't whisper, If they need you they'll tell you But they never did You're useless and ugly If anyone needs you they'll tell you But they never will
You're useless and ugly Just hide in your heart This feeling of pain A dam of sorrow ready to burst
Be quiet, Don't fidget Don't waste their time. If you tell them your problems Their brokenness will be your fault!
