Stop that screaming, I'm just trying to get some sleep
Dipped my toe in the pool, now I'm in way too deep
It's hard to listen when there's only angry voices
I need the courage to make some better choices
I'll wait my turn, cos I don't need the final word
We don't have to shout to be heard
We don't have to shout to be heard
If you pipe down, maybe they won't know we're here
I struggle to function when we've all been raised on fear
I thought I'd left this back and forth behind in college
Your strong opinions are the lowest form of knowledge
I don't believe that the meek will inherit the earth
But we don't have to shout to be heard
No, we don't have to shout to be heard
I'll wait my turn, cos I don't need the final word
We don't have to shout to be heard
No, we don't have to shout to be heard
