It's not the shouting
Or the angry words
It's not those looks
Sideways glancing
It's not do as I say
It's not compliance
It's the silence
It's the silence
It's not the reasoning
It's not the logic
It's not the questions
Third degree
It's not acceptance
No, it's not defiance
It's the silence
It's the silence
Fear of the unknown
Is bad enough, yeah
But saying nothing
Says so much
It ain't you, it ain't me
Ain't where you come from
Color of skin
It's not about pain
It ain't about violence
It's the silence
It's the silence
It's the silence
(Yeah)
It's the silence
No more silence
No more silence
No more silence
No more silence
Wait a minute, no more silence
Stand up better, shout it out, shout it out
Silence, yeah
Won't you please shout it out, silence?
No more, no more silence
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
No more silence, please, please, please
No more silence, no more silence, yeah
Scream a minute, scream a minute
Silence, yeah, yeah, stop it now stop it now
Silence, please no more, please no more
Please no more, please no more silence
Oh, no, no, no, no more silence
Please, no more silence
