Description
she is not keeping secretssecrets are keeping her
keeping her quiet
keeping her close
keeping her in check
and some day she might speak
in anything other than gun fire
police sirens and secrets
but that day is not today
that day is never today
she talks about tomorrow
like it might not come
and she talks about today
like it might never end
and her secrets are keeping her
pressed close to her chest
like that will do anything to protect her
like anything could keep her safe
her secrets are not keeping her safe
they are keeping her close
keeping her in check
and this is as close as they can get
she talks about tomorrow
like it's no more of a guarantee
than pigs growing wings and starting to fly
and some day she might be safe
some day she might speak
in anything other than secrets
police sirens and other people's screams
some day she might not need secrets
to keep her in check
but that day is not today
and her secrets are keeping her close
and pretending that will do anything to protect her
that they can do anything to protect her
some day she might not need protecting
she is not keeping secrets
she doesn't see the point
tomorrow might never come
she speaks in gun fire and
she is not keeping secrets
she is keeping quiet
her secrets are keeping her quiet
