Lyrics
"Diary" - John Rowdy-
Written by - John Henning Jr
Verse 1
Your diary was left in your closet
Well on the shelf where you dropped it & locked it
You never would of known I read those words
With the ink in my eye and the pain It hurts
With your diary
Chorus
Full of them secrets of being used
Full of them secrets of your abuse
Full of them secrets
Them secrets of the truth
With your diary
Verse 2
Ten years gone by & still I cry
About where you went with some other guy
When the KBI come to take a look
They didn't know you buried underneath the burning bush
Chorus
Full of them secrets of being used
Full of them secrets of your abuse
Full of them secrets
Them secrets of the truth
With your diary
Verse 3
Here I lie in my death bed
With the truth of the night
Still rings in my head
Gonna take this to my dying grave
Cause what you did to me darling
Made me feel like a slave
Chorus
Full of them secrets of being used
Full of them secrets of your abuse
Full of them secrets
Them secrets of the truth
With your diary
