A Secret To the End
A secret to the end
What is your dark secret?
The one you hide from the world
The one that haunts you at night
Keeping skeletons in your closet out of sight
A tight lip
Your ship does not sink
But the added burden
Weights you down
You want to confess
But you are scared the world will judge you
Such a judgmental world we live in
So you hide like if you’re playing a game
A game of hide and seek
But you pray no one seeks out the truth
You lie to the world
You lie to yourself
You lie to protect a secret
The protector of the secret that is hidden
Where no map can find
Hidden well inside
Till the day you die
This secret will go down with the ship
Because the truth you would not let slip
