A secret song that I know you will not read

For as strong as I am

I am still weaker than weak

A strong, solid plan

Can still crumble at the peak

But what's a life without fear?

To stay away from anything that you thought could ever hurt you



I open my life

I let it flow in

This pain to my veins

Scars like ink from a pen

When words mean so much

And I slowly lose touch

I know I cannot give in

But who am I to deny a friend?



If this is what you want I hope you want it the way that it is

If this break was for the better, the future better be good

If I have to hide these feelings behind closed window pains

Then it isn't worth it to me to lose all of this sleep

Then it isn't helpful for me to try to bury it deep

It isn't worth it to me, to hide that you are the love in my life



For as weak as I am

I feel so strong holding your hand

A new belief, a better man

Can still stand strong through the debris

And this is a life that I fear...

But what is there to fear other than to open your life...to me



A secret song that I know you will not read

A brand new plan that will lead you back to me

A better friendship that will last till the end

A stronger bond together after we become better friends

A new life to live, and so much more love to give

And a new type of plan, one where I'm a better man
