Silence Isn't Always Key
From my window I watch them pass by
Small, young, tall, bold
My gaze drifts from their fearul eyes
Injustice, death, acceptance, lies
They march bravely to their end
Sorrow, fear, alone, distrust
I draw my curtians to stop the wind
Hatred, unrighteous, hurt, bend
Stop the wind from coming in
From my window I hear them cry
Sorrow, loneliness, longing, goals
Cry for help they know not lies
Misery, injustice, hope, ties
I hide the truth within my heart
Corruption, defeat, tolerance, decide
I kept in silence for only me
Shallow, finality, guilt, debate
I could have changed it from the start
Realization, courage, hurt, late
Silence isn't always key
