Somebody Say Something

Somebody Say Something By BJ Welsh Tumbling towards the mountainous rim All comes crashing down around him Don’t be afraid, to rid one of vice A whisper would have been nice Looking back on those days When life was good; albeit hazed Was it just a phase? Although it lasted longer than it should Please, would you say something now if you could? A few choice words would certainly suffice A whisper would have been nice Spiraling out and down it goes Things go on and nobody knows Gripping life tighter makes it melt like ice A whisper would have been nice If it’s silence that you’re so inclined Don’t be shocked by a life denied Repeat if you must once or thrice A whisper would have been nice Of course there was nothing to see He made it that way quite happily If I told you once I told you twice A whisper would have been nice
