I have a secret hidden behind the wall

Like a junky with needle and spoon

It lies in wait for me

At the fire yesterday

I glanced by mistake and real a line

The line said "I am born"

Dickens an author penned the line



[Chorus]

I have read

Broken the law

I have learned

I have saw



When the sleep was swept from my eyes 

I the fool was seen

A wife devoid of thoughts and feelings 

an empty waking dream

A life spent destroying thoughts 

preserved in revered tomes

Hopes and dreams, poetry, feelings 

that make life real
