Whisper
written by Sean Patterson

Why don't you call it like you see
And not how you want it to be
And fool the eyes that can only look in from the outside

If you hold it in too long
If you hold it in too deep
You'll fail to illuminate all that you walk beneath

CHORUS:

We all need to open wide
When you whisper does anyone hear
Honesty has lost its appeal
When you whisper can anyone hear

When was the last time
You stepped beyond these walls
Better speak with the governor
For a pardon he's sure to grant if you'd only call

It's easier to conceal
Than it is to admit defeat
But you just can't switch hands
To lighten the load on your feet

CHORUS

All this time
The knowledge kept inside your mind
The broken back of silence hears her scream

CHORUS
