I’ve opened many closets
that many refused to see –
Because you choose to store the pains
That you so desperately need to be free
And I’ll keep on breaking down walls
That hide every shame and fear
Crying for every moment you didn’t cry
Until you let go of every tear
I’ll write the truth you’ll never say
So you’ll see that you’re never alone
Breaking, to rebuild your desolate dreams
Nurturing your silenced heart, where it should have grown
I’ll unmask every sheltered feeling
Mistaken for love, rendered a need
I’ll share with you, the dangers of your hunger
Giving real food to the parts that you’d refuse to feed
See your reflection in my words
Mark your hurt on the things I’ll share
To help another before their cries are hushed
Or before they lose hope there’s ‘another one’ out there
To help you gain a voice is all I want to do
But as long as you’re silenced, I’ll be a voice for you
