Declaration

[Verse]
Your voice my favorite sound
A tall choice I may never live down

[Pre-Chorus]
They are shrouding their faces with their hands
A subtle restraining by design
How am I expected to come so much farther out

[Chorus]
They are declaring both sides
I'm awake and I'm declaring my side

[Bridge]
One push then another
One view hides the other
All sides come together
Holding up holding in

[Verse]
With a hand raised and standing their ground
Comes a cold shame pouring down from their mouths

[Pre-Chorus]
These boundaries designed to leave us fazed
A subtle device to urge me down
And still I am expected to come so much farther out

[Chorus]
They are declaring both sides
I'm awake and I'm declaring my side

[Verse]
Now you are sound safe so they say
Come around come away holding out
Never mind your own way

[Chorus]
They are declaring both sides
I'm awake and I'm declaring my side
