It's been this way for years
our words they fall on deaf ears

people hiding behind their fears
trying their best to fight back tears


And our words fail us
you know there's a lack of trust
when people are controlled by there lust

and emotions are left to rust

[Chorus]

I just want to speak
to the living
to the dead

to the voices in my head
i just want to speak


The government says we'll be okay
as long as we learn to obey
and today will be the same as yesterday

no one says what they want to say

[Chorus]

I just want to speak
to the living
to the dead

to the voices in my head
i just want to speak
