Loyal

It felt like they had pulled my lungs out
and shoved in words I didn't say
They ganged up on me,
like it was my fault for ruining their day.

But I stayed silent,
I didn't say a word
Why should I say anything?
When it just wont be heard.

So I let them yell,
and I let them scream,
and not once, not once did
I say that it was bothering me.

My heart felt numb,
and my mouth was dry.
When all I wanted to say was
I don't want to say goodbye.

But the words never came out,
they stayed there in my mind
stuck in my throat,
for only me to hear, like some sort of bind.

But a bind to what?
They wouldn't listen anyway.
And as they continued to yell,
my mind just drifted away.

Away to the times we used to laugh
away to the times we used to say
that we would always be together,
what ever happened to those days?

I just want to break down,
and tell you how I really feel,
but the words won't come out,
if you keep on yelling at me like its some big deal.

All we have to do is talk,
and I know we can work it out,
but if you keep on believing someone else,
Both of us will be full of doubt.

For all you've been hearing is lies,
and not asking me if they're true,
but no matter how much you yell, you know
that I will always be loyal to you.
