The Same Way
I wish that I could tell you
But I'm afraid of what you'd say
Would you ever understand me
Or look at me the same way
Trapped by my fear
Of things you might not understand
All of these memories
And pain I cannot stand
This pain I hold inside me
Things you cannot hold in hand
But I wish that I could tell you
And I'm afraid of what you'd say
Can you ever understand me
Or look at me the same way
Maybe you could see
Maybe you would not judge
But how can I know for sure
When the fear just will not budge
And the silent tears I cry
All the times you hear me sigh
You might not understand
And I'm so afraid to try
I still wish that I could tell you
Still afraid of what you'd say
Can you ever understand me
Will you look at me the same way
Every time you comment
The memories start to come
And the pain just adds up
To an insurmountable sum
So how can I tell you
When I'm afraid of what you'll say
Would you even understand me
Ever look at me the same way
