[Your heart tells all through your lips
In your conscience just like this
Read this poem, the powers may be
Speak not a word and you shall see.]
A evil man on the witness stand
His life is in stake but he stays calm
His heart beats a thousand miles a minute
Should he tell the truth..
Or speak not a word?
A man whom you shared your love with
Steals your heart and runs away
You hang on to his every word, He forgets everything
Should you tell him how you feel...
Or speak not a word
A little boy barely four years old
Abused once again by his father's angry hands
The pain controls his soul and fears
Will he dare tell anyone about this..
Or speak not a word
A brother figure, friend, nearly a stranger
Conversations over the internet every night
We shared everything, then nothing, fighting constantly
Should I even chat with him anymore...
Or Speak not a word
A little girl molested once again
Her fathers whispers echo in here ears
She hangs on to her teddy bear while crying
Should she tell someone about this..
Or speak not a word
What ever your problem may be
The answer lies in songs
And if not, remember this
Speak not a word...
You can't go wrong!!
