A memory suppressed by thirty years
A face stained with biting tears
A life so full of irrational fears
I need you by my side
Like a pinata, I was a toy
Only to be broken, not to show joy
As quiet as a mouse, I was coy
I need you by my side
This all happened in my youth
As no one around me knew my truth
Like a fox "they" thought they were smooth
I need you by my side
They say I have a heart of gold
Despite the story I've never told
Forget all the drama that would unfold
I now can stand alone.
