Anthony Finocchiaro - Guilty Lyrics

Hands are shaking
Body aching
I'm not proud of
The mess I'm making
Stomach churning
Bridges burning
Age-old lesson
I'm not learning, oh
It would be best if the weight on my chest was lifted
But it just can't be

You wanted control
But you'll never get to hear the secrets that I keep
It's taking its toll
Feeling so lost and broken, I'm so guilty
And you'll never know
About all the pieces of me buried away so deep
I put on a show
But when the curtain closes, I'm so guilty

Calculated
Fabricated
Character that
I've created
You don't get to
I won't let you
See underneath, it'll
Just upset you
Having to hide all these feelings inside is killing me
But you just can't see

You wanted control
But you'll never get to hear the secrets that I keep
It's taking its toll
Feeling so lost and broken, I'm so guilty
And you'll never know
About all the pieces of me buried away so deep
I put on a show
But when the curtain closes, I'm so guilty

But if I told you, what would you say?
I never even gave you a chance
And now I've dug myself a hole
I wish things could be different someday
No more of this elaborate dance
With every lie eating away, away, away at my soul

But you'll never get to hear the secrets that I keep
It's taking its toll
Feeling so lost and broken, I'm so guilty
And you'll never know
About all the pieces of me buried away so deep
I put on a show
But when the curtain closes, I'm so guilty
