Why can't I just reveal--
reveal my true feelings for you
Just break the silence one day
and hope you feel this way too
Why can't I just scream at the top of my lungs--
my lungs expelling burdens I've locked up
A sense of empowerment beckons over me
as I imagine just saying 'enough'
Why can't I just talk to you the way--
the way I explain this infatuation to my friends
Slowly going through the reasons I fell
from your beginnings to your ends
I can't let go of this little secret but deep down I know why
Self-doubt arises inside of me and determines no, not I
