I am quietly spoken
I know what I must do
And no one, however devoted
Could stand in the path to you

In this life there are times we cannot explain
There've been days when I have been broken, too
Do not seek out revenge or bitter exchange
For you know, sometimes, you are chosen

And I am quietly spoken
I know what I must do
And no one, however devoted
Could stand in the path to you

What you give you must never seek in return
Don't expect the world to be fair to you
In despair you may question another man's deeds
Do not judge for justice will find them

And I am quietly spoken
I know what I must do
And no one, however devoted
Could stand in the path to you

There's a glimmer of man who echoes my trait
One day this voice will belong to you
Understand about weakness, inherited ways
You may find your flame will destroy you

And I am quietly spoken
I know what I must do
And no one, however devoted
Could stand in the path to you
