Dear Diary

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Dear diary, tell me my truth I left the lamp on in the room A paper cup beside the bed Three little words I never said [Pre-Chorus] I write them down, then cross the line As if the ink could change my mind [Chorus] Dear diary, tell me what to do When every road comes back to you Keep my secrets, keep them safe Tell me which one I’m supposed to face Dear diary, if you know me too Tell me what is false and what is true [Verse 2] The calendar is losing days I circle one, then look away Your old receipt is in the drawer I don’t need it, but I keep one more [Pre-Chorus] I hear the house begin to breathe There’s nowhere left for me to leave [Chorus] Dear diary, tell me what to do When every road comes back to you Keep my secrets, keep them safe Tell me which one I’m supposed to face Dear diary, if you know me too Tell me what is false and what is true [Bridge] Maybe truth is not a door Maybe it’s the floor beneath me Maybe I can name the hurt And still become somebody free [Final Chorus] Dear diary, tell me my truth I’m done pretending I outgrew The parts of me I tried to hide The quiet fear I kept inside Dear diary, now I’m listening too Tell me what is false and what is true [Outro] Dear diary, tell me what is true I’ll write the answer down myself this time
