Close your eyes it’s time to say goodnight
The moon and stars are outside shining bright
Don’t be afraid when she turns out the light
She’ll keep nightmares at bay
Until the break of day

The circus of confusion has come to town
So many buried memories to weigh you down
No need for greasepaint to play the clown
If they find out what you know
She’ll have nowhere to go

An unconditional surrender
On an air conditioned day
A prisoner of her own free will
She’ll feel the heat when it’s time to pay
The prison guard will say that
Freedom can’t be won
The isolation has begun

A jigsaw portrait hangs in shame
Along the hallway of disgrace
A missing piece where the heart should be
A puzzled look upon your face
The chambermaid turns
As you retire for the night
Her secrets are safe for now
At least til morning’s light

Across the sea sits the house of fears
Where the chambermaid has alway dried your tears
A faithful servant throughout the years
If they find out what she’s done
She’ll have no place to run

An unconditional surrender
On an air conditioned day
A prisoner of her own free will
She’ll feel the heat when it’s time to pay
The prison guard will say that
Freedom can’t be won
So rest a weary head against
The barrel of his gun

A jigsaw portrait hangs in shame
Along the hallway of disgrace
A missing piece where the heart should be
A puzzled look upon your face
The chambermaid turns
As you retire for the night
Her secrets are safe for now
At least til morning’s light
