Saying to myself that this will NEVER be me
But look at me now I'm scared to speak
A secret I've kept within myself
Something I refuse to tell anyone else
Only God knows the pain I've inhaled
I guess I have to live by the cards I've been dealt
I know harboring this secret is only making it worse
I know
I need help
But who do I tell
80% of women don't report **** crimes
I used to judge but now I see why
This happiness I'm portraying
Is built on a lie
I swallow my pride
To avoid what I'm feeling inside
Sometimes I just want to break down and cry
I can no longer keep this in the back of my mind
Im praying I find the strength to say good-bye
