Don't let them know your damn weakness
----poem----
There are times when your gun shoots you
Sometimes shooter is the child you grew
And he is someone you can't even sue
Don't cry in sadness, there's nothing you can do
You cared for them loved them no less
Don't let them know your damn weakness
They walked with you when you had fame
That time they helped you in every game
You thought they were true! What a shame
You called him "friend", what is his name?
They played with you like a game of chess
Don't let them know your damn weakness
Just force your hands on your mouth
If you go to north, they'll go to south
No one's here Alibi, you still have doubt?
Don't regret it later, just scream and shout
O! Where have you gone? What is your address?
Don't let them know your damn weakness
