 A New Woman

Do you believe me


There were secrets nobody else would know
I don't know why i was so afraid
It shows you how much a child can believe
How vermin and infamous manipulating people can be
Hiding them i thought i was protecting my family
Now to tell the open is out
The secrets are exposed and laundry is outside
It just won't dry
Not even with the strongest of wind
Its not real and its not right
You don't believe me
Who are you trying to fool
Did you only defend me coz you thought it was right or that you had to do it just because i am a part of you
You've left me so confused
I never told you in the past coz i was so afraid you'd die
I was only a child so young and so frightened
The pain so burning and so much terror filled my heart
You were the reason i felt safe enough to sleep or I'd be crying at night
Sometimes i did, but so discreet you'd never know
Then he died and i never told him that damn well awful doom that fell upon his son or me and my little brother
At least he rests in peace not knowing what happened
Yet you don't believe me and nothing else you believe
Yet i am forgiving you because its not real its not right of me to hold a grudge
I am forgiving you may God have mercy upon your carelessness
