This is my space in the closet,
I don't want to come out,
I've stayed in here before,
you don't know what it's all about.
The perfect place to hide
where I can shut the door,
all snug and calm I lay in here
with a blanket on the floor.
It's a way to hide from life
and the things I'm afraid to face,
It's irresponsible and lonely
but I really need a hiding place.
I won't come out of the closet
I'm too afraid to make things known,
my secret will stay with me
in the closet here all alone.
