If you could only know
Exactly how I feel
How my soul aches
How my heart breaks

If you could only see
Deep inside my mind
The pain in my eyes
The tears that I cry

If you could only listen
To what I want to say
Things you need to hear
But I hold back in fear

If I could only speak
The raw truth in love
I'd actually feel free
But silent I choose to be

With my heart behind lock and key
