9:44 p.m. - 2001-08-17 If I could speak without the fear that holds me down If I could, I�d gather you around me And I�d speak with clarity to force the words out through the silence that is made by minds tightly bound If I could, I�d speak out through the rain If I could whisper in your ear which I�ve borne without a sound If I could, I�d take you in my arms And I�d speak with certainty to control the tears shaking my voice that is caused by minds tightly bound With all that we have gone through, how can we not see beyond the silence Never before have we been through this much And what it�s supposed to teach us I guess nobody knows And I�ll break the silence torn through, broke by the voices shattering the regulated minds Tightly bound If I could, I�d take to the sky and set us free If I could fly up through the pull that sets us down If I could, I�d send this message interspersed And I�d speak so forcefully to launch the singing through the ice that has become these minds tightly bound With all that we have gone through, how can we not see beyond the silence Never before have we been through this much And what it�s supposed to teach us I guess nobody knows And I�ll break the silence torn through, broke by the voices shattering the regulated minds Tightly bound -written 03/99. my fifteenth birthday.
