Change begins with a whisper
spoken by the shadows of the
night. They'll pollute the light
energy and it won't be worth a
fight.

Change begins with a whisper
creeping into your head, put
inside by those who wish you
were dead.

Change begins with a whisper,
an idea coming to life. A thing
that begins small and suddenly
is full of might.

Change begins with a whisper
in the dead of night; when no
one will fight, no one will plead,
and they'll take your happiness
with uncontrollable greed.
