"THE LAST WORD AND SILENCE"
There’s the child and the adult
a heated argument involved
You think the child’s always being told
but not all adults are the grown-ups
It’s funny when you see
how some define victory
by having the last word to say
while others are forced into silence
nothing new to this form of violence
You confuse silence with agreement
You assume you have won the argument
Others are much smarter than you think
No point in pushing
when you’re all about winning
instead of focusing
on finding the solution
Yes, please have the last word
We’d like to avoid your childish tantrum
I suppose your ego is way too delicate
Sometimes it’s fun to play dumb
when you’re the real joke all around.
