Drowning In Secrets

Drowning In Secrets


Verse 1

As the days pass me by

My grip on reality is weakening

I feel it in my body

This weight that I have bared is heavier than I thought

No one in this world can lift it off of me

I am not sure if I can


Verse 2

I'll have to try harder

For if I don't, I will surely end up at the bottom of the waters

One option is to reveal who I am and what I know

But I'm running out of time

I must make a decision now in order to save myself


Bridge

I'm starting to feel guilty

For thinking I should betray myself

I don't know how long I can live with these secrets

If I reveal them, my life will never be the same again


Chorus

I'm drowning in secrets

Every one of them settles in my mind

It's becoming harder to forget them

No one can hear my calls for help

I'm sinking deeper and deeper

WOW, yes the old guilt, shame, and remorse, all bundled with binding fear. The truth is guilt will literally tear you apart mentally and physically. Yet at the same time, the fear of what happens after coming clean is a whole different daemon. Nice song, good luck if this is what you are experiencing yourself.
