I don't wanna know

In shadows deep, my secrets lie,

Beneath the moon and starry sky,

I don't wanna know, for my heart's sake,

The truths that this dark night might make.

Whispers in the night, they say,

Reveal the things I turn away,

I don't wanna know, the pain it may store,

For my heart can't take it anymore.

Each secret kept, a heavy load,

A tale untold, a story sowed,

I don't wanna know, the hurt it may bear,

My fragile heart, I must handle with care.

In darkness, I find my refuge, my peace,

Where worries and fears may find their release,

I don't wanna know, the sorrows it brings,

For my heart has already tasted such stings.

But sometimes, the truth will find its way,

Through the night, in the light of day,

I don't wanna know, the tears it may pour,

For my heart can't take it anymore.

So let me dwell in shadows, my friend,

Where secrets are kept until the end,

I don't wanna know, what's behind the door,

For my heart, it can't take it anymore.
