silent ones

almost time to pack up and move on again

no one notices anyway

tryin' hard not to show all the pain tucked away

all she needs is a voice to speak up

for the silent ones

are you listening

are you willing to share in their pain

will you give without getting a thing in return

'cause you know that your father has done the same

he has a habit of sitting all alone

wears a menacing look on his face

hoping that anger will cover the hurt little boy

who is hiding inside where it's safe

for the silent ones

are you listening

are you willing to share in their pain

will you give without getting a thing in return

'cause you know that your father has done

more for you than you could ever repay.
