Lyrics

It's hard to speak my heart

I'm not a man who bares his soul

I let the moment pass me by—

I stay where I am in control

I hide behind my work

Safe and sure of what to say...

I know I must seem hard

I know I must seem... cold

I never touched that girl—

You think I'd hurt a child yet?

I'd hardly seen her face before

I swear—I swore we'd barely met

These people try to scare you

With things I've never said

I know it makes no sense

I swear I don't know why...

You see me as I am—

You can't believe I'd lie—

You can't believe I'd do these deeds—

A little man who's scared and blind

Too lost to find the words he needs

I never touched that child—

God—I never raised my hand!

I stand before you now...

Incredibly afraid

I pray you understand
