Secret battle

by Heather   Dec 20, 2004


Late at night when the world is asleep,
In my heart is a secret I keep.
I keep it from you, I keep it from me
I keep it from all who would disagree

It is hard carrying this burden around
It's harder to see you with her and still stand my ground
I understand we are friends, nothing more
But can you blame my heart for needing to be sure?

My heart is pleading with me to be with you
She thinks love is simple, as long as it's true
What she doesn't get is love is complicated and hard
she thinks that as long as she loves you she may drop her guard

My head knows differently, she knows the truth
She thinks it out and knows that first you must have proof
proof of another's love for you
proof that I won't end up being blue

They argue and fight over you all the time
they cannot agree on anything reason or rhyme
I am in the middle, pleading them to make a choice
I need the answer, sadness or rejoice

You have my heart in the palm of your hand, it's yours to keep
I couldn't take it back if I tried, even if you became a creep
So I lay here in my bed
needing an answer, fearing dread

So I love you and goodbye
to say otherwise would b a lie
I must now let you go
you can never be my beau

I'll miss you forever, And need you I do
But you'll never know this love I feel true
Goodbye my life, my love, my friend
please let me go, this is the end

I know that right now you simply don't get it
but someday you will, and thru your heart you'll b hit
please know that I loved you and never wanted to hurt you
but I cannot stand this pain that i am going thru

I miss you already
but my love for you is deadly
you make me cry
I wanna die

Don't hate me and try to understand
I am trying to deal with what is in my hand
in my hand is a knife
the only true friend in my life

So I say goodbye
know for you I did die....
