Dont You? (2012-song)

You tell me you tell me

There’s something in me

That I am beautiful to you

Then you go and you see

That there’s something in me

That I’ve been hiding from you

Yes I have my secrets too

I have my secrets, don’t you?

*chorus*

Don’t you?

Don’t you have them too?

*end chorus*

I trusted I needed

Oh I begged and I pleaded

For you to understand

I don’t know, I don’t get

Why you won’t accept

That I am trying to climb

Higher than my own lies

I’ve got my demons too

Yes I have my demons, don’t you?

*chorus*

Don’t you?

Don’t you have them to?

*End chorus*

Look beyond

What I’ve said

What I’ve taken from you

(cover up up cover up the bruise)

Tell me you get it

You get it don’t you?

Don’t you?

Yeah you do

Don’t you?

Don’t you?

Louder Louder

Scream at me

Louder Louder

I am quietly

Asking why you

Broke me free

You’ve gotta have regret, but you’ve gotta believe

Don’t you?

Don’t you?

 

 

Author's Note

We all have our problems, our secrets, our insicurities. You're not perfect nor are you any better than I. Just because you have money, or you moved out of your house, or you've never had to feel what a bully can do to you, doesn't make you better. It just makes a little bit luckier but luck can only get you so far...Strength can take you to the top.
