You Never Know

It’s hard to explain It’s hard to tell, From the life of one To the lives of many There is so much They all have at stake, To open their mouths, Let out what’s in their heart Would do nothing but tear them apart. It stays hidden Unknown to all Nobody wants to see another fall But, You never know How much one is willing to show – To give it all up To show strength most can’t Given a chance that could be their end It isn’t easy Yet, They’re few who will give up They fight for their right Yet, You’ll never know When one is in sight.
