My Secret

You have no clue
Of what resides here
You cannot trust
It involves too much fear
I understand why oh why
I’m not oblivious to the reasons why you hide
From me

I have a secret
It holds all the answers
It’s one I keep close to my heart
It grows and stirs
You can ask me what I hold so dear
Please ask me and I will be right here
With the truth

I’m not the girl you knew
I resent her, I know her through and through
I’m not the woman from three months before
I’m not the one from three months more
And if you’d listen to my tale
Maybe you’d know me now very well

They say you don’t realize
Just what I would do
The lengths I would easily go to
That if you said jump, it’s what I’d do
But I’m not surprised when I think of all the times
You’d say jump but all I’d come to you with was lines
Oh, time after time

But I’m not the girl you knew
I resent her, I know her through and through
I’m not the woman from three months before
I’m not the one from three months more
And if you’d listen to my tale
Maybe you’d know me now very well
And if we’d both share our tales
Maybe we’d know now very well.
