I'm sorry, didn't mean to be rude
They're talking in my house of many rooms and it distracts me
Dear, I'm not the one who intrudes
Your thoughts are rough and careless lovers, always at me
Be quiet now (keep your own council)
I want to be alone (with all the things I never cared to know)
I've got (a headache coming on) secrets of my own (locked in a safe like precious stones)
For once, for a moment (I don't want to know) I want to be the only one in my skin.
