Be Honest

It's okay if you're scared to say
That you found someone new the other day.

I really don't like playing this guessing game?
I'd like to think, through your mind, runs only my name.

It's okay if there is someone new.
I just really need to know the truth.

Don't worry, I wont get mad.
Maybe just a little sad.

This is something that I need to know.
That way I can leave you alone.

I need my heart to slow it's pace,
So it can move on to a better place.
