Now that they found out
Nothing is out of bounds
They can’t keep secrets from me
Now that the words out
Will we be cast out?
They can’t keep secrets from me
A first-hand discovery
I took my chances on you
You took my coat and made it new
What can I say to one who thinks the way I don’t?
Who let the cat out?
Who drew the blinds up?
Just let them say what they want to say
There will come a day when
All this will be forgotten
And all you can claim is the person you’ve been
I won’t deliver you now
They will get you somehow
I doubt I’m the only one whom they can name
From you, from you, from you
Now you will ask me what to do
But I’m done telling you
What you should be and how people perceive us
I’m not a judge and neither are you
And neither are they, the faceless and cruel
Deny them their tools and the lies end
Now that they found out
Nothing is out of bounds
They can’t keep secrets from me
A first-hand discovery
