Here comes a wave

Meant to wash me away

A tide that is taking me underSwallowed in sand

Left with nothing to say

My voice drowned out in the thunder

But I won′t cry

And I won't start to crumble

Whenever they try

To shut me or cut me down

I won′t be silenced

You can't keep me quiet

Won't tremble when you try it

All I know is I won′t go speechless

′Cause I'll breathe

When they try to suffocate me

Don′t you underestimate me

'Cause I know that I won′t go speechless

Written in stone

Every rule, every word

Centuries old and unbending

Stay in your place

Better seen and not heard

But now that story is ending

'Cause I

I cannot start to crumble

So come on and try

Try to shut me and cut me down

I won′t be silenced

You can't keep me quiet

Won't tremble when you try it

All I know is I won′t go speechless

Speechless

Let the storm in

I cannot be broken

No, I won′t live unspoken

'Cause I know that I won′t go speechless

Try to lock me in this cage

I won't just lay me down and die

I will take these broken wings

And watch me burn across the sky

And it echoes saying I

Won′t be silenced

No you will not see me tremble when you try it

All I know is I won't go speechless

Speechless

′Cause I'll breathe

When they try to suffocate me

Don't you underestimate me

′Cause I know that I won′t go speechless

All I know is I won't go speechless

Speechless
