Inside there is a woman cryin in the dark tryin to be strong although her soul's been torn apart Beyond the walls there are children battered by big hands beaten by those that should teach them how to stand
In the bed there's a little girl lying all alone hiding from that dreaded touch and the horror she's been shown down the hall is a little boy shivering from fear searching for his innocence blinded by his tears
Pre-Chorus
In this world we live in we never see the unforgiven
Chorus
Behind closed doors the hurt remains unseen the pain and the suffering will not disappear despair so often disguised by secrecy and shame the silence hides the screaming and blankets out the pain the tears flow to the ground and lay still like the rain they lay among the shadows Behind closed doors is where they remain
Outside there is a young man walkin in the streets chasing down the dollar bills searchin for food to eat Down the block is a young boy standin on the curb staggerin with glassy eyes tryin to be heard
Outside are all the others abandoned by the rest trying to be normal drowning in loneliness Alone they sit and wonder why were they born gay denying who they really are so lost along the way
In this world we live in we never see the unforgiven
Chorus
Bridge
Can we see the eagle fly above can we hold out our hands with love can we find the island in the storm can we make sure someone else is warm can we see beyond what appears to be so many living quietly can we search high above the walls and share the light that shines on us all
End Chorus
Behind Closed Doors the hurt remains unseen the pain and the suffering need to be revealed despair should not be disguised by secrecy and shame the silence hides the screaming and blankets out the pain the tears flow to the ground and lay still like the rain they lay among the shadows Behind closed doors is where they remain
