Lyrics
I'll sound it out and you'll hear me, I'll
I will express it verbally and you will hear me
I'll write it down and you'll sign it, I'll
I will put it in writing and you will acknowledge it
I'll be around when you need me, I'll
I will be present when you require assistance
I'll say it right one of these days
I will articulate it correctly at some point in the future
The words abuse our silence and
The words we use exploit our silence
We'll need to choose our violence and
We must choose our actions carefully
We'll put it down without the news of
We will express it without the influence of news or external factors
Being right one of these days
We will assert ourselves correctly at some point in the future
And while it breaks I'll look away and
During a difficult time, I will look away
While you learn we're meant to stay, I'll
While you learn, we are meant to endure
I'll curse my words for holding back, I'll
I will regret not expressing my thoughts fully
I'll die for that one of these days
I am willing to sacrifice for that someday
And all I've known will fall away and
All that I have known will fade away
All I've been will hesitate and
I will hesitate and reconsider my past actions
And shake before the great berate, I
I will feel anxious before facing criticism
I could die right there one of these days
I could face a significant event right there someday
Beside yourself in Oakland and
Beside yourself in Oakland
Beneath the bed in Austin, I'll
Beneath the bed in Austin
I'll follow you quiet tread, I'll
I will follow you with quiet steps
I'll get it right waiting for you
I will get it right while waiting for you
The night around is black and blue and
The surroundings are ominous and depressing
The words you chose they're
The words you selected are penetrating
Cutting through and
They cut through the situation
We named it wrong, the thing we do but
We mislabeled our actions
We'll sound it out one of these days
We will express it clearly at some point in the future
And while it breaks I'll look away and
During a difficult time, I will look away
While you learn we're meant to stay, I'll
While you learn, we are meant to endure
I'll curse my words for holding back, I'll
I will regret not expressing my thoughts fully
I'll die for that one of these days
I am willing to sacrifice for that someday
And all I've known will fall away and
All that I have known will fade away
All I've been will hesitate and
I will hesitate and reconsider my past actions
And shake before the great berate, I
I will feel anxious before facing criticism
I could die right there one of these days
I could face a significant event right there someday
And while it breaks I'll look away and
During a difficult time, I will look away
And while you learn we're meant to stay, I'll
While you learn, we are meant to endure
I'll curse my words for holding back, I'll
I will regret not expressing my thoughts fully
I'll die for that one of these days
I am willing to sacrifice for that someday
And all I've known will fall away and
All that I have known will fade away
And all I've been will hesitate and
I will hesitate and reconsider my past actions
And shake before the great berate, I
I will feel anxious before facing criticism
I could die right there one of these days
I could face a significant event right there someday
