Magnolia - Bury Your Dead

I hear the stories;

the bruises speak for themselves

You think we’re blind just because we are young

I’m old enough to know now my age made dumb

I should have yelled and forced someone to hear

Those things we thought were better left unsaid

Is now too late?

It dominates my head

Those things we thought were better left unsaid

I could not choose a way

A choice that wasn’t mine to make

Just make him go away

But if you’re happy then I’m glad you found him

Please help her find her way

A choice that wasn’t mine to make

Just make him go away

Will she be happy when she finally finds herself?

Does she know she has our help?

Why do I ever bother?

I could not choose a way

A choice that wasn’t mine to make

We left those things unsaid.

It hurts to talk but I’m starting to wish I did

I could not choose a way

A choice that wasn’t mine to make

We left those things unsaid

They hurt to hear.

Why do I bother?

Some things are better off left unsaid
