You see I don’t always know what I’m saying I don’t always say what I mean I say a half truth And the half lie appears in the sadness in your eyes. And you quickly hide that And pretend you didn’t know that I lied before we know it We are in silence and alone. I want to come out to you with my pain I want to let the chips fall where they may And I want you to do the same. You see I know that sometimes I shout to conceal my love I smile to keep secret my rage I whisper to hide the fear That I’m too much, Too strange Unloveable. Would you promise to tell me When the words I speak Don’t feel true to you? Or when you feel cheated out of the mess of who I am? I know you plan to love all of me And that you can’t if All of me Isn’t on offer.
