I can't explain my mind It's a mess, an inscrutable maze Full of complex twists and turns I can't tell you my face You may cringe and back away Unimaginable horrors engraved in my eyes I can't tell you my childhood The hate I received And the love I was rejected I can't tell you my love The soul I would have battered and bruised If only for a goodbye I can't tell you the answers I don't know them I still struggle to survive a day But I can tell you, through experience that it gets better.

Things I can't tell you
I can't explain my mind It's a mess, an inscrutable maze Full of complex twists and turns I can't tell you my face You may cringe and back away Unimaginable horrors engraved in my eyes I can't tell you my childhood The hate I received And the love I was rejected I can't tell you my love The soul I would have battered and bruised If only for a goodbye I can't tell you the answers I don't know them I still struggle to survive a day But I can tell you, through experience that it gets better.
My mind has created a barrier to my heart
