[00:09.04]I wrote my mother yesterday 'cause I had some things that I had to say
[00:17.17]And I know that when she reads them she's gonna cry
[00:24.98]But in the end I hope she sees
[00:29.48]That I'm just trying to break free
[00:33.04]'Cause I've been walking 'round with secrets now too long
[00:41.29]Back when I was barely ten Mom brought home a new boyfriend
[00:49.17]And I know that times were bad and he made her feel good
[00:57.04]But one night he climbed into my bed
[01:01.29]And he left me wishing I was dead
[01:05.29]And I've been walking 'round with secrets now too long
[01:13.67]You say I'm digging up the past and it's not wise to go back
[01:22.42]But for me it's just as close as yesterday
[01:30.04]And I'm not the kind for breaking rules
[01:34.61]And I'm not wanting to be cruel
[01:38.29]I've just been walking 'round with secrets now too long
[01:54.43]All my life I've felt ashamed 'cause I thought I was the one to blame
[02:02.62]And I vowed to God that no one else would ever know
[02:10.43]How he crushed my childish pride
[02:14.19]And left me tears that never dried
[02:18.18]And I've been walking 'round with secrets now too long
[02:26.56]You say I'm digging up the past and it's not wise to go back
[02:35.19]But for me it's just as close as yesterday
[02:43.0]And I'm not the kind for breaking rules
[02:46.5]And I'm not wanting to be cruel
[02:50.44]I've just been walking 'round with secrets now too long
[02:58.5]And I've just been walking 'round with secrets now too long
