Words I Never Said (feat. Skylar Grey)

Lyrics

It's so loud, inside my head
 With words that I, should have said
 As I drown, in my regrets
 I can't take back, the words I never said
 I really think the War on Terror is a bunch of bullshit
 Just a poor excuse for you to use up all your bullets
 How much money does it take to really make a full clip?
 Uh, and a bunch of other coverups
 Your child's future was the first to go with budget cuts
 If you think that hurts, then wait, here comes the uppercut
 The school was garbage in the first place, that's on the up and up
 Keep you at the bottom but tease you with the upper crust
 You get it, then they move it, so you never keeping up enough
 If you turn on TV, all you see's a bunch of "what the fucks"
 Dude is dating so and so, blabbering 'bout such and such
 And that ain't Jersey Shore, homey, that's the news
 And these the same people supposedly telling us the truth
 Limbaugh is a racist, Glenn Beck is a racist
 Gaza Strip was getting bombed, Obama didn't say shit
 That's why I ain't vote for him, next one either
 I'm a part of the problem, my problem is I'm peaceful
 And I believe in the people, yeah
 It's so loud, inside my head
 With words that I, should have said
 As I drown, in my regrets
 I can't take back, the words I never said
 Now we can say it ain't our fault if we never heard it
 But if we know better, then we probably deserve it
 Jihad is not holy war, where's that in the worship?
 Murdering is not Islam, and you are not observant
 And you are not a Muslim
 Israel don't take my side cause look how far you've pushed them
 Walk with me into the ghetto, this where all the kush went
 Complain about the liquor store, but what you drinking liquor for?
 Complain about the gloom, but when'd you pick a broom up?
 Just listening to Pac ain't gon' make it stop
 A rebel in your thoughts ain't gon' make it halt
 If you don't become an actor, you'll never be a factor
 Pills with million side effects, take 'em when the pain's felt
 Wash them down with diet soda, killing off your brain cells
 Crooked banks around the world would gladly give a loan today
 So if you ever miss a payment, they can take your home away
 It's so loud, inside my head
 With words that I, should have said
 As I drown, in my regrets
 I can't take back, the words I never said
 Never said
 I can't take back, the words I never said
 I think that all the silence is worse than all the violence
 Fear is such a weak emotion, that's why I despise it
 We scared of almost everything, afraid to even tell the truth
 So scared of what you think of me, I'm scared of even telling you
 Sometimes I'm like the only person I feel safe to tell it to
 I'm locked inside a cell in me, I know that there's a jail in you
 Consider this your bailing out, so take a breath, inhale a few
 My screams is finally getting free
 My thoughts is finally yelling through
 It's so loud, inside my head
 With words that I, should have said
 As I drown, in my regrets
 I can't take back, the words I never said
