When you want to speak but you're too afraid
When you can't understand the game they played
When you haven't even done it wrong
And the feeling stays around too long
When it's all for nothing, gone to waste
And sweetness leaves the sourest taste
When the pen runs dry and the ink won't flow
And loneliness is all you know
When a darkened coldness sets within
And you've tried to tempt the warmth back in
You're not sure what you've read is true
When you think it spells the end for you
Rise above and take your place
With humility and grace
For none shall break a heart that's true
And that's something you always knew...
