No Secret

I got a fever I can’t shake
I got a sickness I ain’t gonna quit
I’m on a streak that I can’t break
Lighting the wick of each relationship
I got a secret to tell you
It’s never as hard as you’re making it seem
I got a secret to tell you
You are the doomed 'cause you want to be
I’m as ticked off as a time bomb
All I can seem to blow out is my knee
Half a man does a half ass job
I’d blow my top for some disability
I got a secret to tell you
You won’t be content 'til you’re six feet under
I got a secret to tell you
This life is yours to plunder
Oh, yeah! It’s simple enough to be happy
But who’s gonna choose to ignore
Such basic truths — not you
I can’t remember my childhood
All I recall is a flickering screen
My life is likely a forgery
Cobbled together by books and TV
I got a secret to tell you
You’re not the proxy you pretend to be
Yeah, I got a secret to tell you
You can play dumb if it suits your needs
I’m bustin' out of this coffin
I’m gonna roll my old bones in the dirt
Cuttin' a rug with my skeletons
Hastily hidden, they never stay put
Boy, I got a secret to tell you
Nobody’s ransacking your dresser drawers
I got a secret to tell you
You’re not even sure what they’re hiding for
Oh, yeah! Nobody wants to be lonely
But you’re willing to make an exception
Just for you — Lonely you
