It takes 1,000 words To keep a secret The world was supposed to be perfect When I was with you My life shattered around me While I held your image together I was your final step The last tool you needed to complete yourself I blamed myself for never Being assertive enough But what if I wasnt man enough I didnt want to be hospitilized Like the others or worse be left alive Continued to be tomrmented everyday by those I trusted While you sat on that bus lying to me

One Lie
It takes 1,000 words To keep a secret The world was supposed to be perfect When I was with you My life shattered around me While I held your image together I was your final step The last tool you needed to complete yourself I blamed myself for never Being assertive enough But what if I wasnt man enough I didnt want to be hospitilized Like the others or worse be left alive Continued to be tomrmented everyday by those I trusted While you sat on that bus lying to me
