haley heynderickx & max garcía conover - in bulosan's words lyrics
[verse 1]
we don’t talk about the distance, we don’t talk about the hunger
perhaps since we don’t talk, they cannot tell we’re going under
perhaps we’ve been too fearful of not doing what we’re told
oh, it’s easy being quiet, but it ain’t easy being alone
[verse 2]
in a land where i’m a stranger is a land where i am numb
i cross the streets and shadows, to hope the whole world won’t find out
that my rights are still translucent, like a sharp wind in the cold
oh, it’s easy being quiet, but it ain’t еasy being alone
[verse 3]
i learnеd that poverty is normal, i learned the language hurts my tongue
i learned the jobs are scarce like cutlery as sharp as hunger to my stomach
and my bravery’s still nameless, an expressionless expression
oh, it’s easy being quiet, but it won’t leave much room for questions
[verse 4]
when can we live to love forgiveness?
when can my brothers know their names?
will we ever find the balance of sharing land in the same place?
i feel the new world slowly blooming as the old one starts to mold
oh, it’s easy being quiet, but it ain’t easy being alone
[verse 5]
so grab your friends and brothers, tell them you are done
and the war’s gone long without us using the ammo of our tongues
i see justice in each pea pod and every hand that’s gone to feed it
’cause i’m tired of being quiet
yes, i’m tired of being silent
yes, i’m tired of being quiet
but my soul is not defeated
