Lyrics
As you walk down your path unknown Bearing your cross, your seed is sewn
Reality you keep, deep in your mind
Darkens your world, you're forever blind
Self crucified, but don't realize
That society's promises are just a disguise
The secrets are untold
Secrets that no one must know
Lurk inside, ever tormenting your soul
They rain down like a nightmare
Down, forever more
Secrets of what you think that you should be
Haunts your every move, truth is a mystery
You play your role of darkened innocence
The game of enlightened ignorance
You're a fool
Secrets untold, my life is growing cold
Secrets untold, down, down I go
(Self betrayal, will take its toll
Fear of truth, will take control
Madness strikes, you've lost your hold
Hand of doom, to you unfolds)
Why am I persecuted?
I've done all they told me to do
Promises, turned to demons
For this to myself I'm untrue
Conformity, the sacred blessing
The concepts we're taught to revere
Secrets self crucifixion
My soul's entombed in a chamber of fear
No, I can't be free
The truth haunts me inside
No, I can't break free
Till I break away, from betrayal and lies
Secrets untold, my life is growing cold
Secrets untold, down, down I go
