Secrets

We all have secrets We all have lies Some of us the creepiest Some of them ties, That bind us together That make us who we are They stay forever They never go far. They stay in the subconscious In the back of the mind They sometimes make us nauseous They even make us blind, But some of us have a hard shell Underneath is a soft core No matter how we've been through hell We still won't settle the score. Even though we've been misjudged Up, up we go Even though our names have been smudged We still roll with the flow, I cannot begin to say how lucky I feel To carry no evil inside I hold my own wheel I am my own guide.
