You've Gotta Say It First

by Michael Taylor - Taurus

So many thoughts unspoken,
so many left to think.
Get me outta this hole
i'm about to sink.

So many questions unanswered,
so many life to ask
why do i have to do the talking
i wanna stay behind the mask.

I don't want to tell you i love you.
For fear of what you'll say.
Can't you say it first
do you feel this way?

I can't go on forever,
acting as if i don't
But you've got to say it first.
because God knows i won't.

Just open up your mouth
and say those words
i know i'll say them back
And they'll fly out like birds.
