SHE KNOWS



In the shallow pit of her heart,
She knows she can find a bit of forgiveness.
She knows deep down
It burns into your putrid soul.
She knows when you try to sleep,
It takes away your breath.
She knows when you walk in a room while she is there,
It fills you up with hatred and despair.
She knows after they speak face to face.
That expression in your eyes marks its place.
She knows if you would just open your heart,
You'd let go of it just as you would any other moment of life.
She knows if you would just understand,
She's not trying to make more trouble.
She knows she is not going to be believed again,
Because you don't want to tell.
She knows you are only a coward.
She knows, oh yes, she knows.
