Lyrics
Verse 1
Everybody has the secrets they hide under the bed
You don’t see them; You just see what they want you to see instead
With the masks comes the omnipresent toxic shame
Like a parent’s disappointment, never seems to go away
But this brings a new meaning to freedom in confession
In spirit of integrity, we’d all learn a lesson
The secrets and the lies, the sins we try to hide
It’s time to bring the dark side to the light
Chorus
If you had the courage to confide in me
You might find the peace of mind to ease your misery
Show me the worst of you, and I’ll give you the best of me
Wherever you are, there is no place that I would rather be
Verse 2
Don’t take it from me; I’m just a girl who’s fueled by pain
But if I can use it for good, I hope it never goes away
I’ve been through enough to know that the truth will set you free
So I’ll unleash the stream of consciousness I dare not speak
If you’re adamant on shouldering your strife ‘till the end
You’ll never understand the gift of having a friend
And I don’t need to explain we have nothing to gain
From shoving our concerns and fears away
Bridge
It’s time to bring these scars to light
