the one that I told

When I was eight, I prayed it would go away

the images, the monsters, were all my fate

my pillow gathered tears weeping my secrets

Who knew my strength would become my weakness?

You drowned my innocence and then stuck around

My boundaries were broken so it was allowed

Loneliness means that I can achieve my dreams

I will burn my enemies when I become queen

Everyone says it’s all in your head

So why am I running the other way instead

The one that I told left with no words

I guess our friendship came with some terms

You don’t deserve the forgiveness I hold

You’ll always be the one that I told
