Secret Life

Well I can see the look in your eye
That everything I'm telling you is passing you by
There's a side of me that you don't know
And if you listen close I'll tell you what you want to hear
That I can see by the look in your eye
That I can see by the look in your eye

So I don't have to hear you cry
Stick a needle in my eye
So I don't have to see your tears
Scream until I couldn't hear
So I don't have to feel your pain
I bang my head till I'm insane
So I don't have to know the truth
I don't wanna know the real you

I know by the angel of your brow
That everything I'm telling you (is) confusing you now
I know where I really should be
Always guessing what's next, what's cool for me
There's a dream that I just can't see
There's a path of a way to get where I wanna be
There's a drive in my soul
A pounding beat of rock and roll

I've got a secret life
An aching need an unlived dream
I've got a secret life
An unknown desire chasing me
I've got a secret life
An aching need an unlived dream
I need a secret life
A way to escape the one I live

So many things you don't know
That count on me to be the show
So many places you may go
