you have the right to remain silent
anything you say can be used against you
before things start to get violent
and i latch on to what you've said
you have the right to remain silent
to walk out the door
when the room is vacant
there will be no more echoes
i was right to remain silent
when we were ready to draw blood
before i started a riot
i held my tongue
i was right to remain silent
waiting for our hearts to turn tender
for the storm to stop lashing the island
and held the fort strong for us
