Im afraid to speak out
Because I know I wont fit in
Its too late
Ive already let society win
Im afraid to speak out
Because I know
you aren't listening
To a word I say
To every word
that slips out of my head
It doesn't get through to you
It just floats around
and ends up dead
I speak out
To let my voice be heard
To get my way
But I'm afraid
So I save it for another day
But that day never comes
Because I am afraid.
I am afraid
That you'll judge me
And try to warp my thoughts
But then I remember
That I'm the one
shutting myself out
- C.A.
