Only I Know

Only I know all our secrets

All those whispers in the night

Only I know if its worth it

To give up, without the fight

 

Only I know if I'll talk again

Maybe just an incoherent scream

Only I will know for sure

If it really means anything

 

Only I know if I'll go there

Down a path of nightmare dreams

Only I know if I will wake again

It's not guaranteed, it seems

 

Only I know if the path I chose

Was the wrong path that was right

Only I know if I'll be sleeping

With the dreams I have at night

 

Only I know what you told me

When we both cried each other's tears

Only I know with sacred knowledge

All our hopes and fears

 

Only I know that I was wrong

And sorry doesn't make it right

Only I know how strong you are

How much you hold on, so tight

 

Only. I. Know

never wanted you to

Only. I. Should

but...

So. Do. You

This is for you. You, who never gave up, you who never made it up, you who knows only I know...
