《Letter to Mom》歌词

[00:00:09] I wrote my mother yesterday 'cause I had some things that I had to say

[00:00:17] And I know that when she reads them she's gonna cry

[00:00:24] But in the end I hope she sees

[00:00:29] That I'm just trying to break free

[00:00:33] 'Cause I've been walking 'round with secrets now too long

[00:00:41] Back when I was barely ten Mom brought home a new boyfriend

[00:00:49] And I know that times were bad and he made her feel good

[00:00:57] But one night he climbed into my bed

[00:01:01] And he left me wishing I was dead

[00:01:05] And I've been walking 'round with secrets now too long

[00:01:13] You say I'm digging up the past and it's not wise to go back

[00:01:22] But for me it's just as close as yesterday

[00:01:30] And I'm not the kind for breaking rules

[00:01:34] And I'm not wanting to be cruel

[00:01:38] I've just been walking 'round with secrets now too long

[00:01:54] All my life I've felt ashamed 'cause I thought I was the one to blame

[00:02:02] And I vowed to God that no one else would ever know

[00:02:10] How he crushed my childish pride

[00:02:14] And left me tears that never dried

[00:02:18] And I've been walking 'round with secrets now too long

[00:02:26] You say I'm digging up the past and it's not wise to go back

[00:02:35] But for me it's just as close as yesterday

[00:02:42] And I'm not the kind for breaking rules

[00:02:46] And I'm not wanting to be cruel

[00:02:50] I've just been walking 'round with secrets now too long

[00:02:58] And I've just been walking 'round with secrets now too long
