Words music by Jen Foster
Wont you please tell me just where youre going
Im on edge with this uncertainty
I know I have made it hard to get to know me
Its terrifying – you may not like what you see
And I know that you would love to break me down
But some things are just too hard to talk about
All this time Ive been lyin, been lyin to you
So afraid that youd leave me if you knew the truth
All this time Ive been tryin to reach out to you
All this time Ive been lyin, where you goin, where you goin?
Please dont leave, I never meant to hurt you
Im just locked up in this solitary pain
I learned young that keeping secrets is a virtue
What happened to me – I cant bring myself to say
And I know that if I say it, it is true
And Im scared that you would leave me if you knew
All this time Ive been lyin, been lyin to you
So afraid that youd leave me if you knew the truth
All this time Ive been tryin to reach out to you
All this time Ive been lyin, where you goin, where you goin?
As you leave I say a quiet prayer for mercy
One more time, just turn around and look at me
And as I pray, you say you never would desert me
In fact, come with me – I was just going out for groceries.
And the stars fade out in the sky tonight
And the dawn breaks in and spreads the light
