Speak Out Lyrics
[Verse 1: Matt Cornett & Joshua Bassett]
I call my dad but never talk
Can't ever say quite what I want
No, it's never enough, never enough
When the words just don't add up
So I call my dad and never talk
I'm so sick of my past breakin' me like glass
Shackled by my emotion
[Pre-Chorus: Matt Cornett]
I keep sayin' I'll change, keep stayin' the same
Can't seem to let it go, so
[Chorus: Joshua Bassett, Matt Cornett & Both]
Speak up, speak out
I'm screamin' out but I don't make a sound, no
Gotta get up, go now
Don't wait for the moment just to keep missin' out, yeah
All my excuses, I overuse them every time I open my mouth
For all the times I never knew how
To speak up, I, I'll speak out
[Verse 2: Joshua Bassett & Matt Cornett]
My walls, they know the worst of it
Sometimes we gotta knock 'em down
I wish they could say the things I can't admit
Just gotta let it out
Tongue-tied, kept my lips shut, forget it, so what?
Now I gotta face the feelin'
I call my dad but never talk
Can't ever say quite what I want
No, it's never enough, never enough
When the words just don't add up
So I call my dad and never talk
I'm so sick of my past breakin' me like glass
Shackled by my emotion
[Pre-Chorus: Matt Cornett]
I keep sayin' I'll change, keep stayin' the same
Can't seem to let it go, so
[Chorus: Joshua Bassett, Matt Cornett & Both]
Speak up, speak out
I'm screamin' out but I don't make a sound, no
Gotta get up, go now
Don't wait for the moment just to keep missin' out, yeah
All my excuses, I overuse them every time I open my mouth
For all the times I never knew how
To speak up, I, I'll speak out
[Verse 2: Joshua Bassett & Matt Cornett]
My walls, they know the worst of it
Sometimes we gotta knock 'em down
I wish they could say the things I can't admit
Just gotta let it out
Tongue-tied, kept my lips shut, forget it, so what?
Now I gotta face the feelin'
[Pre-Chorus: Joshua Bassett & Matt Cornett]
I keep sayin' I'll change, keep stayin' the same
Can't seem to let it go, so
[Chorus: Joshua Bassett, Matt Cornett & Both]
Speak up, speak out
I'm screamin' out but I don't make a sound, no
Gotta get up, go now
Don't wait for the moment just to keep missin' out, yeah
All my excuses, I overuse them every time I open my mouth
For all the times I never knew how
To speak up, I, I'll speak out
[Bridge: Joshua Bassett & Matt Cornett]
Don't wanna walk away from this
Don't wanna be a sinkin' ship
The anchor on my tongue won't let me swim
Don't wanna waste a moment more
Don't know what I've been waitin' for
I'll never get a chance like this again
[Chorus: Joshua Bassett, Matt Cornett & Both]
So speak up, speak out
I'm screamin' out but I don't make a sound
Gotta get up, go now
Don't wait for the moment just to keep missin' out, yeah
All my excuses, I overuse them every time I open my mouth
For all the times I never knew how
Speak up, I'll speak out
I keep sayin' I'll change, keep stayin' the same
Can't seem to let it go, so
[Chorus: Joshua Bassett, Matt Cornett & Both]
Speak up, speak out
I'm screamin' out but I don't make a sound, no
Gotta get up, go now
Don't wait for the moment just to keep missin' out, yeah
All my excuses, I overuse them every time I open my mouth
For all the times I never knew how
To speak up, I, I'll speak out
[Bridge: Joshua Bassett & Matt Cornett]
Don't wanna walk away from this
Don't wanna be a sinkin' ship
The anchor on my tongue won't let me swim
Don't wanna waste a moment more
Don't know what I've been waitin' for
I'll never get a chance like this again
[Chorus: Joshua Bassett, Matt Cornett & Both]
So speak up, speak out
I'm screamin' out but I don't make a sound
Gotta get up, go now
Don't wait for the moment just to keep missin' out, yeah
All my excuses, I overuse them every time I open my mouth
For all the times I never knew how
Speak up, I'll speak out
