Bam
By Iwasnearlythere
In the corners of my mind, there lies a hidden place,
A dusty old box locked away without a trace.
For years it stayed hidden, buried out of sight,
A secret part of me that I kept out of the light.
(Pre-Chorus)
Life went on, the world turned, and I believed I'd let it go,
But sometimes the past has a way of making itself known.
(Chorus)
Bam, just like that, it burst open wide,
A wave of emotions crashing like a tide.
Can't deal with what's been stored, what I've refused to see,
A box in the dark now demanding to be free.
(Verse 2)
I thought I was safe, I'd fooled myself so well,
Built walls in my mind, turned my heart into a shell.
Forgotten memories whisper in the night,
Haunting like shadows that dance out of the light.
(Pre-Chorus)
I try to run, but truth has a way of catching hold,
And suddenly I'm faced with stories that need to be told.
(Chorus)
Bam, just like that, it burst open wide,
A wave of emotions crashing like a tide.
Can't deal with what's been stored, what I've refused to see,
A box in the dark now demanding to be free.
(Bridge)
There's a storm within, a chaos I've ignored,
But perhaps facing it is what my soul has implored.
Though it's hard, though it hurts, perhaps it's time to mend,
Unlock the past, let the healing begin again.
(Chorus)
Bam, just like that, it burst open wide,
A wave of emotions crashing like a tide.
Can't deal with what's been stored, what I've refused to see,
A box in the dark now demanding to be free.
(Outro)
So I'll brace myself, and slowly turn the key,
Face the hidden truths, embrace what they might be.
It's time to deal with it, no more out of sight, no more out of mind,
For this box from the past, I'll find the strength to leave behind.
