We don't talk about it

We don't talk about it Suppress it, forget it If I speak up I'll regret it But I need an outlet I'll just be poetic Won't say too much I promise No monsters hiding underneath My bed but instead I kept a knife Barricading doors and windows Cos they're coming for your life Fearing for the worst hearing Any noise in the dead of night Better lock my bedroom door So the big bad boogeyman don't bite Starve myself close to death Just to feel some love Beaten by the people That we were supposed to trust Head out into the world With a mouth kept shut Promise I won't say what happened Or they'll kill all of us I apologise I think I've said too much I'm so sorry I Could not keep my mouth shut Please just try and see This from my point of view This is all I have To vent out the abuse Cos we don't talk about it We don't talk about it Suppress it, forget it If I speak up I'll regret it But I need an outlet I'll just be poetic Won't say too much I promise I'll try to convince you Everything is fine but behind closed doors We just witnessed and got between Another physical assault Grabbed by the throat Lifted up and help against the wall Spat on and laughed at and told I'm worth nothing at all Walking for miles and miles in the pouring rain Just to make sure that the bastard returns her home safe Broken bones, hearts attacks, sirens and cuffs Give the authorities all the proof they need but there's consequence I apologise I think I've said too much I'm so sorry I Could not keep my mouth shut Please just try and see This from my point of view This is all I have To vent out the abuse Cos we don't talk about it I'm so sorry for talking about The haunting memories of childhood But I need a space to get it off my chest Cos the weight is suffocating and I can't keep on fighting for breath I apologise I think I've said too much I'm so sorry I Could not keep my mouth shut Please just try and see This from my point of view This is all I have To vent out the abuse Cos we don't talk about it
