Again, I just want to cry
As I hear her voice of fear, a whisper
Gnawing at me, breaking me down
I shut the doors, I wish it away
I hear the steps on the floor
And a “don't, don't cry!” came from the kitchen
These days have turned into hell
And that is why
I'm closing my heart
Cause I'm afraid
I want to open my mouth
But no one will hear

Now rage is also growing inside
As I hear the steps of the screaming drunk man
I grew up hearing this crap
And I'm done with this, I want it over
Love, care and some kind of respect
It's something that I always dreamed of
These days have turned into hell
And that is why
I'm closing my heart
Cause I'm afraid
I want to open my mouth
But no one will hear
I'm closing my heart
I did it too late
The wound that now hurts
It's not supposed to be there

Can you say “family”?
Can you say “liberty”?
And sing a song…
A happy one
I hope so.

Is it too late now?
We could get along
Is it too late now?

And that is why
I'm closing my heart
Cause I'm afraid
I want to open my mouth
But no one will hear

Can you say “family”?
Can you say “liberty”?
And sing a song…
A happy one
I hope so
