Analysis of Secrets Hold the Truth
Secrets. They are the things that make or break us.
Hold us together by the strings in friendships and relationships.
But also cause us to pull apart at the seams.
Cause insecurities, doubts, second guessiing all the bull sh*t we thought was real.
And if there's one thing you can give me, it is the secret of the truth.
Wrapped in paper waiting for me on the table to open it like it's Christmas morning.
Just promise me this, don't hide behind the secrets or lies.
Come out and face me with the truth.
