My entire life I have been quiet Obedient, too afraid to ask why Not wanting to upset others So I learned to never let them see me cry Just bury the past Never discuss how I feel Just keep moving forward It's gotten hard to tell what is real How could anyone understand The blackness of my soul As my world was ripped from its axis I try desperately to remain whole Everyday that's passed Serves to remind We can't erase the past Time isn't something you can rewind I have never opened up It's never been worth it to me Perhaps it's the answer The path that will set me free But when you ask me Am I scared of you? My answer is no For I finally see what's true I want to show you it all Reveal everything I am to you But if I do what will happen? Just what will you do? I couldn't bear to lose you It would be like having no air You mean everything to me So soul I'm prepared to bare I know all of this is sudden But we both no it's real This connection unbreakable Maybe old wounds can heal I can't run anymore Nor do I want to hide As I cry into my pillow tonight I reveal every single side I can't stop the tears from falling As they slide down my cheek I realize strength is beautiful Yet I feel so weak Please don't go away This I beg of you Here is the real me Just a shadow of the person I knew "If you can dream it, you can achieve it" |
