Quotable Lyrics

Dear Maya
I know sometimes how you feel overlooked, because you quiet
I used to be the same as you when I was younger
When I was hurt and I would keep it all inside
'Till it burned me up and turned into a fire
It's okay, to tell someone when your heart race
Trust in me, promise that I won't betray
