him and only him

this was never what he wanted

he was only just a young kid

never thought that this could happen to him

two tons of steel and two fists of booze

not too much vodka

just enough to get loose

but one man's life is too many to lose

his secret is safe

with him and only him

he could not share the burden

and to his grave the secret followed him

unless that is somebody heard him

this was never what he wanted

he was only just a young kid

never thought that this could happen to him

a jealous man can be pushed to wanna kill

a little booze can give you guts to be brave

another drive

it's part of the top of the hill

his secret is safe

with him and only him

he could not share the burden

and to his grave the secret followed him

that is unless somebody heard him

this was never what he wanted

he was only just a young kid

never thought that this could happen to him

this one is his and his alone

he must swallow it down

as low as it can go

he keeps it in

it'll eat him whole

his secret is safe

with him and only him

he could not share the burden

and to his grave the secret followed him

that is unless somebody heard him
