Everybody talks Nobody understands Everyone takes Just as much as they can But at the top of the stairs, There's a room with a key. 'Cause I got a secret inside of me. And everybody's lost and nobody's found The path we should walk Across this treacherous ground But I go where I like, and I do what I please Because I got a secret inside of me, and no one can take that away. And everybody comes and everybody goes when your number comes up Nobody ever really knows. But my eyes are wide open and my conscience is clean. 'Cause I got a secret inside of me and no one can take that away. Seems like everything I do Everything I play, everything I try, every single day always seems to come out backwards for me Meanwhile, everybody laughs, everybody lies, everybody lives, everybody tries Just to make it through another day And everyone shut up maybe I could hear myself scream 'Cause I got a secret inside of me and no one can take that away Seems like everything I do Everything I play, everything I try, every single day always seems to come out backwards for me Meanwhile, everybody laughs, everybody lies, everybody lives, everybody tries Just to make it through another day And everybody comes and everybody leaves and everyone tries, but nobody sees. But I'm never gonna give up, I'll never give into the grief because I got a secret inside of me and I'm gonna lock it away Yeah, I got a secret inside of me and no one can take that away.
