If I could tell you all my secrets and you not judge me
I would tell you how I loved and they took everything from me
I would tell you how he let me down and took my crown
Then told me it was my fault and I should keep people out
How he hugged me and looked me in my eye with sincerity
Then did the unthinkable and loved everyone but me
How they showed me their worth in little time
How I took everything they stood for without putting in time
How they gave up and fell in to my lies
How I realize they couldn’t handle anything in my life even if they tried
I would tell you how different you were
And I how you linger in my mind and it’s you I prefer
How fear drove my heart and risk was nonexistent
And its regret that I’ve been living
