Journey

I realized I was following the wrong path
So I turned back to retreat
Got lost somewhere along the way
Pride ain't let me admit to defeat
Walked through the coldest seasons
Until my feet started to burn and bleed
He said "I believe in you,
Stop being scared and lead"
If only I could though
See, I can't help but to be honest
They say leave your pain in the past
But my pain is timeless
Follows me like a shadow
And I can't tell all the causes
So I lock my words away
Ignore the graveyard in my closet
I can't be peaceful
Until the day I can place all my cards on the table
Maybe I could be genuinely happy
Maybe I could stop being so hateful
Maybe I could look into the mirror
Without it shattering to pieces
Hopefully I'll be so bold in the future
No one can spot my weakness
