Lots of times I would like to tell you exactly what I’m thinking
But am too scared to mutter even a single word
I don’t say somethin’ because I am afraid you’ll judge me
There have been times when the silence has been so piercing
My ears were left ringin’ and my head was left spinnin’
We all have issues that are hard for us to talk about
We all have problems that hurt us to share
We know what it’s like bein’ hurt by someone who you thought cared

Sometimes our longing for the cure to misery, leaves us hurting more
There are times when I wish I would’ve said something
At times I wish I would’ve listened long enough to the voice in the silence
If I say something, will I be judged or is it other way around
The things left unsaid will be what haunts me in the future
Faced with a decision am I willing to take a step toward bein’ vulnerable

So many times I am scared of what others say
But could it be others are afraid because of the words I don’t
I find it hard to write sometimes, because I feel its been said before
A little inspiration goes a long way, when you embrace it
There are times when we lose our motivation
There are times when we want others to hear us but we don’t speak
People don’t like awkward silence,
but our voice is heard loudest in the quietness of our heart.

Pushing it all aside
Pushing it all away
Putting stock in the words we don’t say
Thinkin’ the gospel will be spread another day
What I don’t write, will go unwritten
What I don’t say may go unspoken
What I want to say may be misinterpreted and twisted some way
Am I willing to take the risk
Sayin what I feel and feeling what I’m saying
