No mystery is safe when fame sits in your lap.
There is no retreat from your own infamy;
No crowds to absorb you anonymously.

Freedoms the sound of nobody there;
Fame is a game of secrets laid bare;
To leaders who crave to be known far and near;
I faithfully promise to cheer from down here;
That none need bear witness to all I hold dear.

Success can be won, but not taken back;
No mystery is safe when fame sits in your lap.
There is no retreat from your own infamy;
No crowds to absorb you anonymously.

Freedoms the sound of nobody there;
Fame is a game of secrets laid bare;
To leaders who crave to be known far and near;
I faithfully promise to cheer from down here;
That none need bear witness to all I hold dear.
