What if she found out?
Oh God
What if she found out?
I've seen her darken before
I've seen her shadow more
But I've never seen her tumble so far
Over the edge
What if she found out?
Significant changes in her behavior
A tell tale finding of truth
How many rusted doors have we lost the key to?
How many doors have now become walls?
How many shadows can she hide behind?
How many lights will go without flame?
So ashamed now...
...should have been to begin with
Not thinking about it then
But now there's nothing else
Nothing else
But shadow
And panic
Even if she did find out
She's lost to it now
