If No One Will Listen - Keri Noble

Maybe no one told you there is strength in your tears

And so you fight to keep from pouring out

But what if you unlock the gate that keeps your secret soul

Do you think there’s enough that you would drown?

If no one will listen

If you decide to speak

If no one’s left standing after the bombs explode

If no one wants to look at you

For what you really are

I will be here still

I will be here still

No one can take you where you alone must go There’s no telling what you will find there

And, God, I know the fear that eats away at your bones

It’s screaming every step, 'Just stay here'

If you find your fists are raw and red from beating yourself down

If your legs have given out under the weight

If you find you’ve been settling for a world of gray

So you wouldn’t have to face down your own hate
