If I Get to Know

Let it be that I wash my face so well

So I see beneath man’s handsome face 

Let it be that I train my heart to tell 

When a man is lying so I flee with pace

 

Should my emotions ever take heed 

I may live alone but not to be broken 

But my heart yearns to bleed 

Stubbornly I allow my self to be taken 

 

In brief joy, I vowed to be loyal 

To a love that will on live by the day 

The night came and his demon was fatal

Heartless and cruel he pushed me away 

 

So let me sleep peacefully in my pain 

For I have spilled tears more than the rain 

And if anybody can hear my heart cry 

Just listen and never ask me why
