don't speak - No Doubt - 10 de Outubro 1995

talking is useless
i already know what you have to say
it's been ringing in my ears
for an eternity it seems
it's always been there
creeping from time to time
oblivious to thought
subliminarly poisoning
slowly taking its toll
burst out quickly
left an unmovable hole
invisible to the eye
unmistaken by the soul

feelings left me time ago
dark sky ahead
thunderbolts flashing in my eyes
body wet from the storm
tired from the long walk
the winding road
painfully marked my body
i wanna shed my skin
waiting for the sun to burn it
it never peels off
it never will
a reminder for times to come
a perennial birthmark

cutting the cord...
