Knowing the truth

I see everyone around
in this small little town
they all know the story
but don't know the truth
of who i really am
within this forbidden youth
if they only knew
who i really was
i wouldn't have to hide
the crying kid inside
mother knows what i do
not a cut but a drag
to hide the past
within this rag
she says she hates me
i know its true
for now I'm not
the daughter she knew
