Don't Let It Show

People that sing when
their eyes are clear
Are never really welcome here
Can't you read the sign on the wall

and If you speak of higher deeds
Do it in a whisper please
You'll awake, the sleepers
Within

So if there's something that you know
Don't let it show, don't let it show
If you feel high, when they are low
Don't let it show, don't let it show
Tonight

Don't you know that the
walls have ears
And even the deaf can sometimes hear
The tremble, in a voice
Like yours

In an office block in a dusty room
A file is being prepared on you
And soon
You'll hear boots
At your door

So if there's something that you know
Don't let it show, don't let it show
If you feel high, when they are low
Don't let it show, don't let it show
Tonight

So steal away with me
To a basement place
I keep on loan
Just in case
It's cold and it's dirty
But it's home

And here where the fire's crackling
And the pipes are always rattling
We'll talk, till the sun comes up

So if there's something that you know
Don't let it show, don't let it show
If you feel high, when they are low
Don't let it show, don't let it show
Tonight
