Speech 101


My words come from a place Broken to pieces Completely shattered I open my mouth but nothing comes out To speak for others is like standing in a crowd Staaamering and stu stuttering Everyone around always muttering What you never had the guts to face My throat is closing up the room is spinning Then I say it, and it's all over I passed speech 101 And I'm yelling at the top of my lungs All the pieces put together again
