The children say run away On the streets no one plays Going down to the bargain basement See what you find if you have the patience Down so low your nerves were raw You find them all beneath the floor Pass it by friends to meet You find them all beneath the street Too many secrets Reasons to defeat us Precious little reasons To while away the days Behind you, beneath you Above you, all around you It could have been you Too many secrets Reasons to defeat us Precious little reasons To while away the years Behind you, beneath you Above you, all around you, all around you It's so complicated Your problems were related Crawling long and lowly It's dawning on us slowly Too many secrets Reasons to defeat us Precious little reasons To while away the days Behind you, beneath you Above you, all around you, all around you What happened in there did you lose your mind? When they knocked at the door did you make it in time? Did you talk to God to see a sign? Was the devil next door was your soul on the line Did it just appear did you ever chase it Did you really fall down can you ever face it Do you always remember what you do 'Cause it could have been you It could have been you
