I tell people that I can't play this year, I say; "That I've got too much work to do", Some of them even believe me, They understand how much is on my plate. Then there's the real reason; That my self-esteem no longer exists. I just can't take another hit, Or gauge how good or bad I am playing. The truth is I've had four panic attacks, And when I get out on the field All I feel is stress. I want to tell them the exact reason why. To say how insecure I really am,but what's the point. In a team all players need to believe in themselves, I, for one never have and never will. It's so stupid,but it's simple I just can't do it anymore.

The Truth Is Mine
