I Can'T Hurt You

I can't help but hold it in, All my feelings, My sorrows, My opinions, I have to hold my tongue. Or I'll break your heart. I'll blame you, And hurt your feelings. I can't do that to you. I can't hurt you, Or else I'll never forgive myself. I'll feel guilty, All because I opened my mouth, And spoke my thoughts out loud. All because I was honest. Because of my honesty, I'll keep my thoughts to myself. So I can never crush your heart, And hurt you ever again...
