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 is found
The pathway 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.
