Dead Secrets
Dead Secrets
Did you see that scene
The sheer curtains blowing in
The little girl sitting on the bed
Country music playing
Her destruction
I felt her pain like a razor
The devil was close, so I ran
And he followed
Came through the light with a stream of blue fire
Into her mind
I unleashed the beast
The man with the razor lunged with his vengeance
I knew the little girls secret
And the deed he had done
He left black charring on the light
The dead flies disappeared
Her memories were his porthole
He's dead now
As are the little girls memories and soul
Inspired by Leonard Cohen
