Can the people hear what we say?
It’s not death that has us worried
It’s not pain that makes us pray
But the words used against us
The weakness we gain from strength
As we carry smiles, and heavy burdens
Will our life spans have much length?
You think of us as ghosts
Like our voices have no use
But have you ever stopped to wonder
How we’ve experience mental abuse?
Mistreated, misjudged, mistaken, misunderstood
Missing the words we want to say
Missing our laughs and memories
With only time left to decay
Yes we’re strong, deep inside
Somewhere past all your sorrowful lies
Maybe one day you’ll understand
Why we can’t share how we feel
Why we can’t take a stand
