Can you tell me the truth
Tell me the truth of how you feel
Can you tell me the lies
Which you have yet to reveal
Can you show me the pain
The pain that made me kneel
Can you show me the life
The life which you did steal


The author's comments:
This piece was inspired by relationships, how people tend to hide their true feelings, keep things fro one another, and end up stealing another person's life. In this case, the speaker is asking a person in her life to tell her how he feels, to tell her the lies that he has hidden, to show her this pain that she has felt, and why she is feeling that way. Finally she asks him to show her the life which he stole, which would be her heart.
