They tell us to be quiet

They tell us to be quiet
But when we know the truth
It sits inside of us, burning
How can we be silent
Knowing how it burns
And learning
How I've been
I know I can't escape
This place has bars
Across the windows
And screams in the shadows
This series of shocks won't take
I know the difference
And refuse to know why I should give in
