Things You Shouldn't Know-Gothic Angel

I have to run, I need to run, please don't run after me
You took me in, I let down my guard, and I accidentally let you see
The scars I hid so well, the opened wounds, being fed by crying tears
A misty scent perfuming my wounds, the mist created by my fears

Soothing each wound, wincing as more salt is added into its hungry mouth
Trying to heal, yet I can't believe you could know what I'm all about
I hid myself away so well, and yet I let you see right through
The disguise that I was proud of, until the night that I met you

You saw right through from the start, don't try to deny
But you just don't realize why I started to cry
I had been so proud that no one saw the horrible, existing scars
I liked the feeling of being caged, of being behind bars

No one was supposed to see, the hurt I held inside
But for some reason around you, I never thought to hide
Please don't wander after me, just let me finally go
I have no reason to stay, and you have no reason to know

I did what I did, what I thought I had to do, realize that please
Don't you realize that what I did was a side affect from a disease?
I'm proud of my scars, I love them, they make me who I am
And no I don't expect you to understand

Just let me run away, and let me hide just like before
Walk away, turn around, I am what I am, don't ask for more
I'm just the girl of many scars, that make me feel at home
I'm perfectly fine with my scars, with them, I never feel alone

Don't speak, don't breathe, just let me go
There's just some things that you should never know
