You Woudn't Let Me

I told myself it was too much
I couldn't take it anymore
I wanted to just give it up
Hide behind this closed door

I didn't want to see the sun
Or face the bright light again
It was a burden I couldn't bear
I wanted to just give in

I wanted to wallow in misery
As I let my pain grow and grow
I wanted to lock my feelings up
It's easier if they don't show

But you told me it wasn't the answer
That it's better to cry and talk
I wanted to scream and say your wrong
But you wouldn't let me walk

You took my hand and held it hard
Saying I needed to fight this pain
So I squeezed it with all my might
But you didn't go away

So I gave in and cried many tears
And spoke till my throat was dry
Thinking so much clearer now
I realize that you were right
