"BE GRATEFUL (THAT I'VE KEPT QUIET)"

Written 2018-07-17

Be grateful that I’ve kept quiet

as you blab to every pair of ear

who probably refuse to hear

your sob stories

your endless miseries

your unfulfilling company

yours

all yours

you, you, you...

of course, you never stop

with the same old subjects you refuse to drop

You’re lucky

I’m the one who stay far, far away

even with your knife on my back

I’ll just walk on while pulling it out

How?

I’ve got better company

In fact, they’ve always been there for me

They know the whole story

So just be grateful that I’ve kept quiet

I’ve been waiting for justice to be served

and the truth to come out

that will surely shut you up!
