Secrets

silence is golden
is what you always told me
never open up
to anyone unknown
These ever growing secrets
lay hidden in my soul
Festering and growing
into boils of secrecy

Silence is sacred
is what you always taught me
never speak a word
of what you really feel
The more they know of you
the more they will betray you
And slowly but surely
they will control your mind

I'm growing tired of secrets
burning in my heart
I'm longing for disclosure
and a brand new start
No more lies and secrets
burning in my soul
no more stealth and silence
I am in control

When the lies are gone
and secrets have disappeared
There will be no-one left
hiding from ourselves
