The pain of my secret is too much to bear but I shall keep it for all will despair.
I hold this burden to keep their smiles for if they would know their lives would collapse
All that they have known that it is just a lie why would I show them that much pain when I could protect them from it under my wing. I know that it’s wrong but why should I let their naive minds know how scary the world is

They laugh and play as I fake a smile  my happiness crumble at the seams They are all deaf to my screams as I hide my pain
The world spins round but mine is stopped
with the weight of my secret
it hurts to breathe it hurts to move


I’m like a statue in place
sworn to this spot for all eternity
My burden is too much to bear
But I swear if I let them down
all my demons will fly around
and terrorize them til they fall


Why did I accept my fate
why didn’t I fight
I did it to protect the naive.
the weak
the clueless

I hold this secret to protect me.

— The End —
