Go get your shovel
I want to bury the past
Go get your shovel
These things never last
Dreams turn to nightmares
Happily ever after is a lie
Sell yourself to the highest bidder
But don't ever let them see you cry
Fodder for the few
Don't pretend you know
Everything happens for a reason
It's all for show
Go get your shovel
I want to bury the past
Go get your shovel
These things never last
When your heads in the clouds
You miss the real mark
The clock is still ticking
Reality is so stark
Just when you think it's done
Another takes it's place
Don't open up your heart
To another fraudulent face
Go get your shovel
I want to bury the past
Go get your shovel
These things never last
Go get your shovel
Life is too short
Go get your shovel
No time for your heart to sort
I want to bury the past
Go get your shovel
These things never last
Dreams turn to nightmares
Happily ever after is a lie
Sell yourself to the highest bidder
But don't ever let them see you cry
Fodder for the few
Don't pretend you know
Everything happens for a reason
It's all for show
Go get your shovel
I want to bury the past
Go get your shovel
These things never last
When your heads in the clouds
You miss the real mark
The clock is still ticking
Reality is so stark
Just when you think it's done
Another takes it's place
Don't open up your heart
To another fraudulent face
Go get your shovel
I want to bury the past
Go get your shovel
These things never last
Go get your shovel
Life is too short
Go get your shovel
No time for your heart to sort

Fear and Hope
I prepare for the worst,
but hope for the best.
I prepared for the news,
but hoped it was not true.
I prepare the shrouds,
but hope she'll not need them.
I prepare the phone tree,
but hope I'll not have to call.
I've prepared the songs,
but hope I'll not need to sing.
I've accepted that she's made her peace,
but I still hope she'll never just give up.
I know I may never see her again,
but I hope to hold her one last time.
I know I may not get to kiss her again,
but I hope to stroke her cheek.
I know how brave she really is,
but I hoped she'd not have to prove it.
This is how my people, my family,
deal with

Secret Keeper
You tell me to trust you,
That you'll keep my secrets safe.
I play it safe and start small
I tell you about my low self-esteem
And tell you that you can't tell
But you go and tell others my secret.
You wanted to be my secret keeper
But I can't even trust you with a minor one
To be a secret keeper you can't tell,
You need to be a good friend
And keep secrets secret
The trust you wanted had to be earned,
Yet you expected it to be blindly given
By a girl that's only known pain.
Acting as you have makes it harder to trust
My love that I had for you is no more,
Farewell my friend, you can't be my secret keeper forever more.
Literature
Discern
I can take
a hint without
taking offense,
without affecting
my sense of self,
but it's so hard
to tell who is real.
