Mute Scream

Mute Scream

We are

Blank cards in a poker table

We’re free

As much as a string puppet

We spoke

Just like a broken record

While the world falls apart

You sit at the coffee staring

Doing nothing

Claiming for nothing

While the war blows up

You turn on the TV and watch

Changing nothing

Understanding nothing

And deep, deep inside

Your soul yells the injustice

But your mouth

Just says a mute scream

Ref.

‘Cause we are

Blank cards in a poker table

We’re free

As much as a string puppet

We spoke

Just like a broken record

We don’t believe

We don’t mean

We don’t act

We don’t scream

We don’t believe

We don’t mean

We don’t act

We don’t scream

And once again you here

Like a spectator in the theatre

You already know the play

Is called “don’t say”

You already know the cast

There are the “don’t ask”

Ref.

‘Cause we are

Blank cards in a poker table

We’re free

As much as a string puppet

We spoke

Just like a broken record

We don’t believe

We don’t mean

We don’t act

We don’t scream

We don’t believe

We don’t mean

We don’t act

We don’t scream

And when your soul yells the injustice

Your mouth says a mute scream

Ref.

‘Cause we are

Blank cards in a poker table

We’re free

As much as a string puppet

We spoke

Just like a broken record

And when your soul yells the injustice

Your mouth says a mute scream

Your mouth says a mute scream

Your mouth says a mute scream
