I was told not to talk.
I was told not to walk.
In this absence of the night.
In this nightmare, of a fight.
I was told to keep silence or my life they would take.
I was told to leave this place or my heart they would break.
I was told not to move,
I was told that I would lose.
In this frightening silence of the night,
I was told not to fight.
Now I am here to listen to your rules.
For all I know I could be the fool.
Don't leave me stranded unless you don't care anymore.
My heart is folded, my heart is sore.
