Silent
Stay silent
Quiet, small, never violent
Hush now, don’t make a sound
They won’t accept you if you’re ever too loud
Silent
Stay silent
Don’t raise your hand
Never raise your voice
Don’t ever rally,
You don’t have a choice
Put up with the pain
To cry out is vain
Live with it in your head
God only knows,
We’re all already
