I can't let you see who I really am

but I can't keep up with the lies

can't let you go and just live with the pain

and my feelings I can't keep disguised.



Afraid I might have to say sorry

let go of my own inner pride

but just as I find I have courage

I run for a corner and hide.



Would it hurt you too badly if I said goodbye

if I finally found the right words

would you go out of your way to cause me great pain

would it be what I greatly deserved.



I'm in a black pit, my own private hell

not knowing at all what to do

to afraid that I will screw everything up

of the things that I may put you through.
