lyrics

I spoke against you once
You dragged me to the street
Broke my camera took my things
And ripped through my will with your fist
This is me speaking

I spoke against you twice
You imprisoned me for anguished nights
The purpose of my time denied
And I came out smaller on the other side
This is me speaking

I spoke against you thrice
You took all the ones I love
Two hands to bind were not enough
And I cried and cried in vain
Hoping that my body would drain
Emptiness could keep me sane

And though the world could have no doubt
You pointed, said “here’s the one with the mouth”
On the ground I coughed out a broken shout
“I’ll speak till the physics of sound give out”
