Dark and dangerous
Kept quiet and covered
Lurking in shadows
Your gonna get hurt

They wanna get out
Fighting for freedom
They'll ruin your life
Your time now has come

Dark shadows
Silent secrets
They're stealing your soul
Tonight
Dark shadows
Silent secrets
The moment has come
To release them
You need to be free

To ashamed to look
Your secrets are out
The weight of the moment
Is breaking/crushing you down

You're trying to hide
The light is too bright
You don't know it's good that
You've escaped from the night

The author's comments:
Secrets hurt. They slowly eat away at you until you can't stand it anymore. Even if you know there will be consequences, it's better to tell the truth and let go.
