the only flash

over the course of my life, I died inside

I hid in the shadows to protect my pride

The questions were never asked by us

Does that mean I have gained your trust?

I don’t want to be controlled by what nobody knows

I thought the confession would make use close

I told everybody but still had no words

Who knew that it would make it worse?

The only flash that lasts is the past

Do you know what I'd do if I could go back?
None of that trauma would be able to last

I’d cut off what you think would go fast

Did you notice I don’t take pictures anymore?

Those are the signs that everybody ignores
