say what you need to

take all of your wasted honor
every little past frustration
take all of your so called problems
better put them in quotations

say what you need to say

walking like a one man army
fighting with the shadows in your head
living up the same old moment
knowing you'd be better off instead

if you could only...say what you need to say

have no fear for giving in
have no fear for giving over
you better know that in the end
it's better to say too much, than never to say what you need to say again

even if your hands are shaking
and your faith is broken
even as the eyes are closing
do it with a heart wide open

say what you need to say
