Cast aside,
hidden away.
Retreat to my place behind all the walls.
Shove me harder,
tear me deeper.
All I wanted, was to hear you speak true.
Truth can never be free,
will never be heard,
if it's hidden from those with hard hearts.
Let it be heard
when you mean what you say.
Drop not a beat
when their eyes are upon us,
'lest your words shall
prove false.
Truth is not heard
solely in solitude.
It is not reserved
for the private wanting heart.
If true to your words,
in all lights you shall be.
Enraptured with praise,
when the doors are locked tight.
Once my barrier is down,
the outsiders emerge,
and quickly you drown,
past the lingering air
of the words you called true.
If loyal to their name,
they would hang in the air.
Untouched.
and true for all to see.
