First time that they came for me
I was a young boy and little did I not believe
I had a hole in my heart
And I was looking for a piece that fit
The next time I was privy to
Their dirty secrets of their little hidden clues
And when I added it up, I had a little, but a little won't do
Can anybody out there tell me something true
Preferably something that no one can dispute
When everybody's spilling lifelong secrets
I'm betting safely on the man it will demiss
Despite his weakness
He'll take his secrets to the grave.
(And we will leave it all!)
Don't ever want you left behind
(So get your fill while I go)
Don't you ever think they'll take you alive
(I don't know when the lies and when the truth begin)
Don't listen to anyone, telling you anything
It's the truth, it's all relative
Though no one thought it would ever come to this
I have a secret
And that secret is there was a lie I told myself until it became the truth
If all the webs I weaved would ever come and unwind
But I got plenty of time
Can anybody out there tell me something true
Before I believe something that no one can dispute
When everybody's spilling lifelong secrets
I'm betting safely on the man it will demiss
Despite his weakness
He'll take his secrets to the grave.
(And we will leave it all!)
Don't ever want you left behind
(So get your fill while I go)
Don't you ever think they'll take you alive
(I don't know where the lies and then the truth begins)
Don't listen to anyone, telling you anything
It's the truth, it's all relative
I still believe in mysteries
And all the lies and memories
I know they'll lay my body in the ground
I plan to never settle down
I took the medicine, but the pills won't work
The pills, they don't do anything
But rearrange all the littlest things and-
I know a little bit, but that bit won't do
That bit I know is irrelevant
So I guess this song is irrelevant too
