There’s an inside and an outside of me
Each day I attempt to bring them closer
Etch onto my skin the words in my stomach
I can’t swallow them any longer
Each day I attempt to bring them closer
Secrets are sisters of lies and lies fester
I can’t swallow them any longer
The ones already there chew through my stomach lining
Secrets are sisters of lies and lies fester
They stink – to smells cling memories
The ones already there chew through my stomach lining
They burn their way onto my skin
They stink – to smells cling memories
God knows my skin and my secrets hold memories
They burn their way onto my skin
My lips stay closed but they must be visible
God knows my skin and my secrets hold memories
He features on both of them
My lips stay closed but they must be visible
Because there’s an inside and an outside of me
And he has burned both of them
