IN MY CLOSET

[Verse 1]

I want to know what no-one knows

I want to live but nothing lives

I want to grow but nothing grows

I want to take but nothing gives

[Chorus]

The music sings but voices drown it out

The strangers shout and echoes ring

I don’t know what they’re wanting me to say

I don’t know what they don’t want me to say…

[Verse 2]

I want to speak but nothing speaks

I want to see but nothing sees

There is no merit for the meek

I want to leave but nothing leaves

[Chorus]

The music sings but voices drown it out

The strangers shout and echoes ring.

I don’t know what they’re wanting me to say

I don’t know what they don’t want me to say…

[Verse 3]

I want to breathe but nothing breathes

I want to rule but chaos reigns

The tongues lash out and new blood seethes

I want to think but I’m inane

I drop my torch and fan the flame

What’s in my closet is to blame

They won’t let me out

They won’t let me out

They won’t let me…

They won’t let me out

[Rap]

I got the dark in my closet

No room in my closet

The moon in my closet

Not soon out my closet

Not safe in my closet

Save face in my closet

No space in my closet

No grace in my closet

I got a skeleton there

In my locker. Beware!

If I were you, say a prayer

Cuz I’m easy to scare

A mask in my closet

A task in my closet

Don't ask about my closet

There’s no way to stop it!

A paradox in my closet

Broken locks in my closet

A dozen moths in my closet

A thousand shocks in my closet

Forging freedom in my closet

A mausoleum in my closet

Hiding heathens in my closet

Faulty reasons in my closet

Please don't go into my closet

Oh no! Come out and close it

Don't show me what you found

Now go! I gotta finish

Cleaning out what's in my closet

No more scheming in my closet

Now I know the opposite

I know I found a way to stop it…
