you think you know her
like the back of your hand
but you don't know a thing
one day she came to you
you were sitting there
and then she said, she said:
"I have a secret way out
if you take my hand
I will show you"
confused as you are
you took her hand
you thought you knew her
she leads you to a place
where you're alone together
and then she said, she said:
"this is my secret
my secret way out
look carefully"
she shows you her arms
filled with wounds
filled with scars
it's what she called
her secret way out
her escape from pain
