I panic and fumble my words when put on the spot.
I try my best to avoid the obvious hoping not to get caught.
I'm the cliché who dances when no one's watching.
Writing song lyrics I'll never sing in a room that's crowded.
The woman who will do anything to deny her own heart because she's afraid the truth will rip her apart.
The woman who seeks and prefers the silence.
Who believed that once, love was enough to forgive violence.
I'm the one who no one truly knows.
I've never and will never let anyone get too close.
The woman who's most terrified of someone who can call her out on her bullshit. She knows they could see how broken she really is.
