Why stay silent When there is so much to say? Words say so little But then say so much. Hurt by a truth Hurt by a lie Why stay silent When there is so much to say ? Thoughts keep you silent Afraid to say these things out loud Mind plays different options Too scary if these thoughts came out So why stay silent When there is so much to say ? I will be judged It wouldn't be fair To share these words I hold. Tell the truth But don't tell a lie Mouth open but no words can be found So this is why I stay silent When there is so much I could say !
