Terrible Secret

I've been workin' on a plan
It's been brewin' for years
And I'm so close I can taste it
Even through all these tears
I've been swallowin' my urges
I wash it down with my pride
A few more weeks
I'm gonna purge it
I'm just bidin' my time
'Cause I know

Everybody's gonna want a piece of me
When I get through
But they will
Never know what hit 'em
'Til I finish what I came to do

I've got a terrible secret
I'll never tell
The reason I keep it
Will send me to hell
So you'd better watch out
When my terrible secret gets out

My friends all ask me what I'm doing
And why I never go out
But I just stare directly through 'em
And whisper words I should shout
I know

Nobody will know the anger
That I keep inside
Until it's much too late to hide
