The dark passenger

There are things I never tell you, ´cause I got things to hide
Before I ever tell you, reveal another side
No one shall ever notice, I’ve got a troubled mind
A look behind the curtains reveals a darker side

Can’t you see that I don’t want this?
Can’t you see that I keep silent?
And… so why do you keep pushing me?
Why do you try to get it out of me?
Why can’t you stop where I say?
Why do you make me suffer?
Why do you keep insisting?
Why do you try to break the ice?
I know where this way leads to
Don’t go down that road

Pain is wrecking my body as you try to get close to me
Every layer you lay bare expose whi I used tob e
And I write in aguish even as you comfort me
You can try for a lifetime but my secrets are meant tob e

Can’t you see that I don’t want this?
Can’t you see that I keep silent?
Can’t you see that I don’t need this?
You will never penetrate that shelter
Just so you know
You’ll never get it out of me
No! I don’t mean to confide in
You! You’ll never get it out of me
No! I don’t share those secrets with you

Can’t share the truth with you, I know you want to know
I got to keep you from the dark passenger inside my soul
You can’t take part in this, don’t need to deal with it
While one side is revealed the other, one remains conceald
