Taken the Wrong Way

Hello?
Are you there?
Is anyone listening?

Those are the questions
That I always ask
And yet, it seems
No one is listening

Then I see you speek
And it seems
Everyone can hear you
How is that so?

When I come to talk to you
You shut me out
And tell me to shut up
That I need to stop talking
When I barely even said hello to you

Now you want me to talk
Explain myself
But I can't
Cause I'm afraid
Afraid that what I say next will be
Taken the wrong way

Now I don't talk
Yet when I do
I never say much
It's all because
Of what I'm afraid to say
Will be taken the wrong way
