Like a Bird Without a Song

You've silenced me.
I won't do this again;
I promise.

Forever, I promise,
I'll be silent.
Like a bird without a song.

You won.
Congratulations.
Ruin me, again.

I'm sorry.
You know I can't escape you.
You know I won't try.

Silenced too many times;
I'm not fighting.
I can't fight this anymore.

Like a bird with broken wings,
And without a song,
I'm silenced.

Without wings, I'm alone.
People come,
They go.

How can something
Without wings or voice
Stand a chance?

You've ruined me,
Any chance I could have had.
Everyone gives up.

You can't make a silent bird fly;
They get sick of trying,
And then they leave.

That's how you designed it.
No, no, I'm not leaving.
I can't leave.

Your hands,
Wrapped around my throat.
Don't leave me.

If you left,
I'd have no one;
You've scared them all away.

You've silenced me,
Stripped my wings.
I won't leave you.

If you let go,
Would I have?
Who wants a silent bird?

I am silenced, forever;
I will never leave you,
Because you will never let me go.
