Lyrics
1) Her secret is a loud dark and shaded thing
They wait with veiled breathing
For her child like voice to sing
She keeps it in a safe place a little box tied up with string
Nobody Knows what she keeps within
Chorus:
I want to be closer to free
But I keep going back on myself
I want to be able to be
Anyone else
2) She?s bleeding and there?s a gap in her memory
Keep breathing for her
Cos when she wakes up she lies about what she?s seen
He?s dreaming if he thinks he knows what she means
Nobody sees what she knows to be
Chorus
She?s screaming So quietly
She?s bleeding So secretly
Chorus
