Lyrics
And when I take the stand call your witness

I'll tell you who I am, another mockery

Will tell your people I figure I just don't know
Conveying uncertainty about understanding the expectations or thoughts of others.
What you bottle up inside and that's my story to tell
Highlighting the internal struggles and emotions kept hidden, presented as a personal narrative.
You'll never know

You'll never know
-You'll never know what I've found
-Talk about it on Saturday
