If No One Will Listen

Maybe no one told you there is strength in your tears

And so you fight to keep from pouring out

But what if you unlock the gate that keeps your secret soul

Do you think that there's enough you might drown

If no one will listen if you decide to speak

If no one is left standing after the bombs explode

If no one wants to look at you for what you really are

I will be here still

No one can take you where you alone must go

There's no telling what you will find there

And God I know the fear that eats away at your bones

It's screaming every step "just stay here"

If no one will listen if you decide to speak

If no one is left standing after the bombs explode

If no one wants to look at you for what you really are

I will be here still

If you find your fists are raw and red

From beating yourself down

If your legs have given out under the weight

If you find you've been settling for a world of gray

So you wouldn't have to face down your own hate

If no one will listen if you decide to speak

If no one is left standing after the bombs explode

If no one wants to look at you for what you really are

I will be here still

If no one will listen if you decide to speak

If no one is left standing after the bombs explode

If no one wants to look at you for what you really are

I will be here still
