Once was lost
but now I'm found.
Better lost
than in sight.
For it's better unseen
and easier that way.
Wouldn't want exposed
the secrets I keep.
It's best left unsaid
the things I have done.
My mouth stays closed;
the things I hide.
Never showing,
never to speak!
Words of wrong
I fear they might become.
Can't tell what I keep inside;
too strong to give away.
Mustn't let you in,
nor let it go.
The secrets in me
are worth the pain I feel.
I've been hiding for so long
but I still never let it out of reach.
It exists in my mind,
crying in my soul.
Concealed behind my doubts,
sheltered by my fears...
These secrets I dare not tell
for what they reveal can ruin everything.
Try as I might,
the dark brings no light.
And there's no up to this down
so I have to settle inside this storm.
I let the secrets overtake me
rather then be freed.
They're caged inside
to prevent them from doing bad.
I hold them in tight,
doing what feels right.
The secrets must stay
when everything else goes.
To the grave is the end
and only then will I speak.
