John Hiatt - This Secret Life Lyrics
I dreamed I was being kept aliveTo bear the brunt of a family jokeAbout which no one spokeTo multiply and divideThis hideous thing, this human kindWith something else on his mindI was going to bedYou were saying, I doThen I lost my headChorus:When I awokeI was living this secret lifeComplete with a secret dogAnd a secret wifeIn another zoneAddress unknownThis secret lifeThis secret lifeAnd I am chilled to be hereAmong these ghosts so heaven-bentWith hell to pay for rentWhen I am holding you nearIm not so sure this world is realIm not sure how I feelAnd I was going to sayNot a whisper, dearThen I drifted awayChorusCome out, come outWherever you areYou look so nearYou seem so farThis scales messed upThe angles wrongYour day will comeMeanwhile, the night is longChorus
