You wake each day and pray
For one wish to come true
Hoping to free yourself of the burden that travels with you
It's the elephant in the room
The very thing that stops you from telling the truth
An odd exception to the rule
It knows your every move
And it will make you feel like a fool
No matter how many times you lock the door
It will always come home to roost
This will condemn you to silence
Send you on a fruitless search for answers
Knowing that you won't find them
It will keep you awake
As you try and sleep tight
Creating a mist so thick
You'll struggle to see the light
It's your toughest opponent in a mind game
That will positively drive you insane
It is always in control
Your fate is decided
Before the dice is even rolled
An invisible weight resting on your shoulders
Making those cold nights feel a little bit colder
It's your wost enemy
Yet you haven't met
The one thing that you try in vein to forget
Has now become your biggest regret
So big that you wish you'd never kept that secret
