We don’t talk about it
We don't talk about it, suppress it, forget it, if I speak up I'll regret it
But I need an outlet, I'll just be poetic, won't say too much I promise
No monsters hiding underneath my bed but instead I kept a knife. Barricading doors and windows 'cause they're coming for your life. Fearing for the worst hearing any noise in the dead of night
Better lock my bedroom door so the big bad boogeyman don't bite
Starve myself close to death just to feel some love
Beaten by the pеople that we werе supposed to trust
Head out into the world with a mouth kept shut
Promise I won't say what happened or they'll kill all of us
I apologize, I think I've said too much
I'm so sorry I could not keep my mouth shut
Please just try and see it from my point of view
This is all I have to vent out the abuse 'cause we don't talk about it
We don't talk about it, suppress it, forget it, if I speak up I'll regret it
But I need an outlet, I'll just be poetic, won't say too much I promise
I'll try to convince you everything is fine but behind closed doors, we just witnessed and got between another physical assault
Grabbed by the throat, lifted up and held against the wall
Spat on and laughed at and told I'm worth nothing at all
Walking for miles and miles in the pouring rain
Just to make sure that the bastard returns her home safe
Broken bones, heart attacks, sirens, and cuffs
Give the authorities all the proof they need but there's never consequence
I apologize, I think I've said too much
I'm so sorry I could not keep my mouth shut
Please just try and see it from my point of view
This is all I have to vent out the abuse 'cause we don't talk about it
I'm so sorry for talking about the haunting memories of childhood
But I need a space to get it off my chest, 'cause the weight is suffocating and I can't keep on fighting for breath
I apologize, I think I've said too much
I'm so sorry I could not keep my mouth shut
Please just try and see it from my point of view
This is all I have to vent out the abuse 'cause we don't talk about it
