My Safe Were Secrets Lie
I feel it weighing down on me
like drenched clothes in the rain.
I hear it filling to the brim,
screaming out my name.
In my safe where secrets lie,
I lock up all the pain,
I bury all the memories and hide away the shame.
I'm a bank where you can deposit,
and you will never withdrawl.
I'm the teller sworn to silence,
no secrets can I tell at all.
My life bacame like an open book,
write anything you wish,
anything you want,
more secrets you can dish.
In my safe where secrets lie
I lock up all the pain,
I bury all the memories and hide away the shame.
I am your candy machine,
insert a secret and get set free.
I am a sacred book,
bound in secrecy.
My life doesn't matter,
it's already layed out and planed.
I am to be your journal,
just to listen and understand.
In my heart where secrets lie
no matter if they're yours or mine,
I must deal with the heavy burden, erase this torture from my mind.
Because I am here to store
all your lies, pain or dirty deeds.
I did not ask for this,
but this is the purpose you all made for me.
So in my safe where secrets lie,
I must lock up all the pain.
I'm forced to bury all the memories
and hide away the shame.
