Why is it so easy To make it up in my mind what I want to berate But when it comes time to speak To the point of confrontation, I just can't articulate? And do I have the guts to say what needs to be said? Turn everything on its head Or will I walk away? Or will I walk right away? I'm an open book But in the face of adversity, I clam up, tongue tied My heart beats in my chest Can I say what needs to be said? When you walked away What did you want to say? When you walked away What did you want to What did you want to say? When you walked away What did you want to say? When you walked away What did you want to say? When you walked away What did you want to What did you want to say? When you walked away What did you want to say? Prejudice remarks Make my ears stand tall, but my vocal transmission stalls Intimidation in all its faces Drives rage up my pipes But they're clogged when they should flow A friend of mine likes to run But it seems that some upstanding citizens Like to deprive my dog of fun Well, there's some sad people under this sun When you walked away What did you want to say? When you walked away What did you want to What did you want to say? When you walked away What did you want to say?
