House of secrets
You gave me a glimpse at your life
then quickly shut the door
left me standing on the step
hungry for a little more
You peered at me through the window
your face was stern and grave
though your eyes were flashing daggers
silently ignoring me like a beggar
Crying, i banged on your door
please won't you just let me in?
but you never moved from the window
never opened the door again
The door I laid my hand upon
turned to a reddish glow
raging flames swallowed the house
with you sitting by the window
I moved from the fire
this house of secrets burned down
it burned down right in front of me
until it was ashes scattered on the ground
With it burned my heart and soul
u'll never be able to make me whole
You hurt yourself and slept so well
Here I am locked in a cell
