About the work
Please don’t tell me why,
keep me in the dark,
I’ve done so many foolish
things, outlawed once - afar
Please don’t tell me when,
keep me in the dark,
timing never mattered much
as long as we were apart
Please don’t tell me how,
keep me in the dark,
but do defuse the mains
and switch on the gas supply
Please don’t tell me what,
keep me in the dark,
lock the place down,
and hide those rusty keys,
then light the last of your
cigarettes to finally
set me free

Title Keep Me In the Dark
Please don’t tell me why,
keep me in the dark,
I’ve done so many foolish
things, outlawed once - afar
Please don’t tell me when,
keep me in the dark,
timing never mattered much
as long as we were apart
Please don’t tell me how,
keep me in the dark,
but do defuse the mains
and switch on the gas supply
Please don’t tell me what,
keep me in the dark,
lock the place down,
and hide those rusty keys,
then light the last of your
cigarettes to finally
set me free
