We all have our secrets
Tucked deep inside our hearts
The thing we are ashamed of
A scar, an unhealed mark
A story written in permanent ink
Locked and sealed
Deep inside of me
Where no one can see
Lost and untold
The story unfolds
And you are left to see
The broken side of me
He was perfect
Everything I dreamed
Everything I needed someone to be
Then he left
And I had to guess
What really made him go
But then I found out those secrets
The details in the fabric
How he really never cared
About my broken heart
That he would come back around
Trying to leave another scar
And when I asked what is all about
He tried to pretend
It meant nothing at all
Even though he said
It was impossible to get me out of his head
And I cried
Because I fell for him all over again
I screamed and threw
Put my fist into a wall
All just to realize
I don’t love him at all
I’ve moved on
Finally
After all of this time
God opened my eyes
Showed me I don’t need you in my life
So let’s just go our separate ways
Our story is coming to an end
I can’t sit and wait forever
Hoping you’ll come back around
I hope life treats you well
But this is our goodbye
And then you’ll be
Just a precious memory
Held deep within me
A secret
My detail in the fabric
