I'd like to learn to talk someday
I want the pain to just go away
I feel outcasted when everyone else is talking
I'm the only one left alone walking

I go to school and stare at the ceiling everyday
If that doesn't make me talk, I try another way
I haven't talked again today
I want to keep the muteness at bay

I've tried too hard to give up now
All I can wonder though is "how?"
It's been going on for many years
In those years I've cried many tears

I feel so hopeless I just want to give up
In social situations I feel like I have to throw up
Nobody takes the time to understand what I go through
They can all talk whenever they choose

You've asked me so many times to play
I can't answer so I just walk away
My life is filled with miserable memories
I just want this to go away, please

Don't judge anyone by what they have
Just be glad you don't have what they have
Everyone's unique in their own special way
I just want this to go away someday
