most people's secrets are ugly and mean
that's why their secrets inseldomly seen
i can attest i don't got many
the old ones left are as toxic as venom
i know a priest called sm58
she'll forgive anything but first you gotta pray
she's got these laws about meter and rhyme
you can get away with murder with her most of the time
i saw a snake on the riverbed seven
me and my friend we killed it for fun
we drove through its head with our boots and a stone
and my dad saw it and what i'd become in that moment
most peoples secrets are ugly and dark
and people you first meet are not completely who they are
there's a light we all shine and a dark that's at odds
we gonna get along fine if we can talk to the same gods
i know a priest called sm58
she'll forgive anything but first you gotta pray
i'm her disciple now would you like a brochure
most people's secrets hunger for disclosure
some people's secrets will set their lives aflame
some people's secrets i'm not naming any names
most people's secrets will drive them to be liars
most people's secrets i'm just preachin to the choir
