Quiet (Stripped)

"Put on your face, know your place
Shut up and smile, don't spread your legs"
I could do that

But no one knows me, no one ever will
If I don't say something, if I just lie still
Would I be that monster? Scare them all away
If I let them hear what I have to say

I can't keep quiet, no-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
No, I can't keep quiet, no-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
A one-woman riot, no-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
No, I can't keep quiet
For anyone
No, not anymore

'Cause no one knows me, no one ever will
If I don't say something, take that dry blue pill
They may see that monster, they may run away
But I have to do this

I can't keep quiet, no-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, I can't keep quiet, no-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
A one-woman riot, no-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, I can't keep quiet

There'll be someone who understands, no-ooh

I can't keep quiet, no-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
I can't keep quiet, no-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
I can't keep quiet (oh, no-ooh)
No, I won't keep quiet
