I’ve got something hidden in my bedroom
Yes I’ve got something hidden in my bedroom
If you’re interested It’s underneath my bed
Yes, I’ve got something hidden in my bedroom
If you’d rather pass so be it
I know that most would be terrified to see it
But if you pass the tests
I’m sure you’ll be impressed
Yeah, I’ve got something hidden in my bedroom
It’s something I hold so close to me
Maybe the world isn’t qualified to see
And you’re not out to seek it
If it’s seen I just can’t keep it
Maybe it’s better off left a secret
Chorus:
{So I guess it’s time to close up the windows
Let your thoughts seep into the shadows
Despite what was said, it’s an ordinary day
Where nothing is hidden away}
I’ve got something hidden in my chest
I’ve got something hidden in my chest
I can assure you from the get go
It’s not the very best
But I’ve got something hidden in my chest
I do my best to control it
It would be a bloody mess to deal with if you stole it
And it’d disturb all the children
To be flopping on a stage
So I’ll keep it safely in my rib cage
I will keep it safely in my rib cage
:Chorus:
I’ve got something hidden in my head
I’ve got something hidden in my head
It’s infectious and grotesque
If let out will make a mess
So I think I’ll just keep it there instead
I think I’ll just keep it there instead
You claim it’d be better if I showed you
But just a sliver of the content would explode you
Just a peek inside
And it’d make you want to hide
Believe me darling I have tried
Believe me darling I have tried
:Chorus:
