The room is dark and small
The air almost suffocating
There is yelling and anger
There is pounding

It's my heart racing
My parents stare me down
With a look of disbelief and horror
I fear they know

I'm holding back tears
Trying not to let them see
The secret inside of me
One of their biggest nightmares

I remember that day
It was as though i was losing
Everything i had ever known
It all seemed to be slipping away

Never did i fear
That i would be caught
Mischievous and brilliant
I thought i was sneaky

They think it's all over
That i've cleared everything up
But what they don?t know
Is that i continue to lie

It?s a never-ending cycle
You'd think i would learn
But his love is so good
I can't let him go
