There’s a box under your bed
With secrets, regrets, and shame
There’s a darkness in your heart
A special place that fear has claimed
There’s a past that has hurt you
Left scars on your skin
And you’re trying to move on
Swear you won’t go through that again
But the reality doesn’t go away
There’s always a constant reminder
But, darling, it’s okay
You have to learn to be kinder

See, even the great make mistakes
We all trip up every once in a while
It’s what you do next that counts
So go put on your best smile
I know that hesitation 
I know how difficult that feels
But you’ve got to start moving on
Got to quit spinning those wheels
Life’s not supposed to hurt so much
You have to try your best to forgive
Give your heart a break, it’s ok
Just try your best to live!
