Keeping your secrets locked down
Inside your throat, sealed below
With a melancholy frown

Your eyes refuse to see the
Morning daylight from the sun

That dreaded night's curse
You say that you're fine
But you're just getting worse

Let me help you, my friend,
In any way that I possibly can
Don't submit yourself to secrecy
Because of some sadistic man

Open your mouth and tell the world
That should have the right to know
Because you're safety is important to me
And I don't want to let you go
