Come on - just admit it Now the coast has cleared You've always been more than alive We are the same we are alright No-one around us They cannot hear The man beneath the pond survived One bucket at a time Even when the darkness falls When the beauty seems to hide The shapes the colors Still remain Just not so vivid are the lines Nothing is as simple As they claim A rough crawl down the attic stairs To step out of the frame Don't say nothing at all My dear Don't say nothing at all Don't say nothing at all My dear Don't say nothing at all Don't say nothing at all Don't say nothing at all
