A Secret I Never Got to Tell
It's dark out here
Maybe full of monsters lurking
Waiting to devour every bit of me
Out if nowhere sprang the monsters I feared.
Their sharp eyes stabs me like a knife
Fangs cut deep through my skin
All of them, grinning at me
Wanting the flesh of my body
I cried, cried, and cried
I tried to blurt out a word for help
But I just cried... helplessly out there
Years had gone by; memory never faded
As I passed by the same road that night
I felt loneliness inside
That night became a secret I tried to cover
And will still be for the rest of my life.
