Whisper

Why when we do our darkest deeds
Do we tell?
They burn in our brains
Become a living hell
Cause everyone tells
Everyone tells…

You've gotta be careful what you tell people, and who you tell it to. Secrets are strange things, aren't they? They don't remain secrets for very long, because we can never keep them to ourselves; we just have to tell somebody close to us.

But how well do we really know those who are close to us? How do we know that when things get rough the people we once trusted won't tell? Even the thought of someone telling my secrets makes me feel ill with worry, and keeping things to myself is a lesson I've had to learn the hard way. I'm not saying that you should bottle everything up, because that just makes you burst, but I just think that we should be selective in who we tell things to.

OR if you're really sneaky, make sure you've got something on that person (not that a friendship should be this way, but if you've let something slip to someone you shouldn't have, then you gotta cover your back). That way, they'll think twice about spilling the beans on you.

Also, secrets are a part of us, so if they do get out into the open; don't automatically deny it. Those who really care about you won't care what you've done in the past- they love you for you; and that's a true friend. It might even feel better having it off your chest & having someone to talk to about it.

Our darkest secrets can make our lives hell, so I think everyone should have someone to confide in. If not, then write it down or something. There's no point in letting the things of the past ruin your future.
