I Know, You Know

She says "this life ain't worth livin'"

Cute little girl from next door

Night after night she gets beaten

By her drunken daddy that just got home

A million faces around us

Pretending we're blind ones

Who don't want to see

Those many hearts filled with sadness

Won't stop all the madness

Of stories untold

Hey soldier, what are you dreaming

In the gloomy cold embrace of the night

Children still moaning and screaming

That's no reason for you to end the fight

A million faces around us

Pretending we're blind ones

Who don't want to see

Those many hearts filled with sadness

Won't stop all the madness

Of stories untold

I know, you know

Secrets no one ever should keep

But we don't let show

And that makes us guilty of the same crime

The wait is long in the city

So many long for a cure

It's said that help's on the way now

With that my friend you can't be so sure

A million faces around us

Pretending we're blind ones

Who don't want to see

Those many hearts filled with sadness

Won't stop all the madness

Of stories untold

I know, you know

Secrets no one ever should keep

But we don't let show

And that makes us guilty of the same crime

I know, you know

Secrets no one ever should keep

But we don't let show

And that makes us guilty of the same crime

And I know, you know

Secrets no one ever should keep

But we don't let show

And that makes us guilty of the same crime

Old man he's still working doubles

Cuz the check is not enough to survive

He's facing nothing but troubles

Ain't no livin' and he's barely alive
