作词 : Dement | |
I wrote my mother yesterday 'cause I had some things that I had to say | |
and I know that when she reads them she's gonna cry | |
But in the end I hope she sees | |
that I'm just trying to break free | |
'cause I've been walking 'round with secrets now, too long | |
Back when I was barely ten Mom brought home a new boyfriend | |
and I know that times were bad and he made her feel good | |
but one night he climbed into my bed | |
and he left me wishing I was dead | |
and I've been walking 'round with secrets now, too long | |
You say I'm digging up the past and it's not wise to go back | |
but for me it's just as close as yesterday | |
and I'm not the kind for breaking rules | |
and I'm not wanting to be cruel | |
I've just been walking 'round with secrets now, too long | |
All my life I've felt ashamed, 'cause I thought I was the one to blame | |
and I vowed to God that no one else would ever know | |
how he crushed my childish pride | |
and left me tears that never dried | |
and I've been walking 'round with secrets now, too long | |
You say I'm digging up the past and it's not wise to go back | |
but for me it's just as close as yesterday | |
and I'm not the kind for breaking rules | |
and I'm not wanting to be cruel | |
I've just been walking 'round with secrets now, too long | |
and I've just been walking 'round with secrets now, too long |
