Lyrics

I've been cradling a secret
Swaddled in a white envelope
Half a century old
The man in the photograph
You caught sight of
The story I've never told
A shade follows me
Haunting my dreams
Where demons and angels reside
Shaming, unveiling
They know every wave of the black wave
That spawned my lie
Do you recall the strangest of days
When mother prayed that I would go?
Told father to drive me far, far away
Where I gave up the secret alone
Then part of my life was always missing
A fire began to swell
Like a dancing wave, came a force so great
And smothered the flames of hell
I've been living a half life, up until now
Longing for him to find me
The man in the photograph
You caught sight of
Came to shore
I've been cradling a secret
Swaddled in a white envelope
Half a century old
The man in the photograph
You caught sight of
Came to shore
