Everybody knows something is there. In your eyes behind hands approaching your face. Take a drag, watch the glow and drift of ash. But we're from a silenced society. Speaking is weak and leads to your downfall. Better hope the best things in your life don't waste away, Just like you flick away the wasted half a smoke. Both the **** of an ironically cruel joke. All because we've been taught through repetition to keep certain things to ourselves.

Unspoken Battles
Everybody knows something is there. In your eyes behind hands approaching your face. Take a drag, watch the glow and drift of ash. But we're from a silenced society. Speaking is weak and leads to your downfall. Better hope the best things in your life don't waste away, Just like you flick away the wasted half a smoke. Both the **** of an ironically cruel joke. All because we've been taught through repetition to keep certain things to ourselves.
