Unspoken

Unspoken, that's the way he likes it

do what you're told and keep your thoughts to yourself

Unspoken, not so easily forgotten

what happens when you put your needs in front of his-self

Unspoken, but the bruises don't lie

stick to the story, that you fell down the stairs

Unspoken, don't you ever ask why

he's got them all believing how much he really cares

Unspoken, your mama was right

that look in his eye, told her who he really was

Unspoken, just looking for a fight

the look you gave, was all he needed, for probable cause

Unspoken, the charm all ran out

love bombing made you think that you were his number one

Unspoken, he has filled you with doubt

no amount of sorry can undo what he's done

Unspoken, keep a tight upper lip

your stories have to match up, so that he can save face

Unspoken, you'd better get a grip

if you tell a soul, he'll put you back in your place

Unspoken, don't you dare cry

if you make him look bad, you know whose gonna pay

Unspoken, the ground is the place for your eyes

don't look at him or he'll deliver, coup de grace

Unspoken, not where you thought you'd be

when you fell in love, he wore a different face

Unspoken, you can beg and plea, please

it only makes him hit you where nobody can see

Unspoken, no one would ever believe

that's just what he sells you, so that you won't tell

Unspoken, be a good girl and wear your heart on your sleeve

if anyone suspects, he's gonna put you through hell

Unspoken, it's all in your head

everyone knows you're crazy, can't believe what you say

Unspoken, keep him happy and fed

it's just a little sprain, no need to get an xray

Unspoken, just give him your phone

there is no-one else you need to call, he's all that you need

Unspoken, you should feel all alone

nobody else could love you, you just need to concede

Unspoken, surrender your will

anyone who reached out, will all disappear

Unspoken, and you know the drill

remember what happened to that lady you met, down at the pier

Unspoken, sit with your hands in your lap

only speak when spoken to and laugh when he laughs

Unspoken, keep a neat, tidy house

be seen not heard and barely eat enough for a mouse

Unspoken, you have heard it before

don't make him repeat himself, or ask you for more

Unspoken, don't think too much of yourself

if not for him you'd still be single, up on some shelf

Unspoken, straight to your grave

no one gives a care; you are unworthy to save

Unspoken, you can't take anything back

a million women like you, falling through tiny cracks

Unspoken, with so much left to say

he stole your tongue and spirit, when he swept you away

Unspoken, till there is nothing left

he got up in your head, leaving your heart bereft

Unspoken, please stop holding your tongue

you're worthy of true love, and you are never alone

Unspoken, let him drown in his shame

love was meant for comfort not this cold, cruel game

PLEASE -Speak Up!!
