A Secret Never To Be Told

They say you’re too young to know
About the heart and soul
Did they think
You were wrapped in cotton?
Is the pain then less
When your mind’s a total mess?
Oh how quickly they’ve forgotten
We walk on the darker side
The pain you hide, you hide
(But you will never get to see)
You wait for a better time
Will there be a better time?
(A life without this is not that far)
As cold as the head can be
A shadow hanging over me
Do you think it’s the worst that could happen?
Is the pain then less?
When your mind’s a total mess?
Oh how quickly they’ve forgotten
We walk on the darker side
The pain you hide, you hide
(But you will never get to see)
You wait for a better time
Will there be a better time?
(A life without this is not that far)
