Whitewash
Whitewash: Unveiling the Shadows of Deception in Joe Gilder's Melody
Lyrics
The talk of the town
The subject is widely discussed in the community.
That boy got around
The person referred to has been socially active.
And the powers that be made him disappear
Authorities or influential figures caused the person to vanish.
I took it in stride
Handled the situation calmly.
It taught me to hide
Learned to conceal emotions or vulnerabilities.
Don't you mess up, boy
A warning not to make mistakes or face consequences.
Or you're out of here
If you make a mistake, you'll be expelled or face negative consequences.
Someone help me
Seeking assistance or support from others.
Someone help me
Repeated plea for help.
Whitewash this tomb
An appeal to cover up or hide a distressing situation.
The state of my heart
Describing the emotional state as a masterpiece.
A true work of art
Emphasizing the emotional intricacy, hidden from others.
As long as you don't take a look inside
As long as others don't delve into personal feelings.
The skeletons know
Inner struggles or secrets that are safely concealed.
They're safe down below
Keeping hidden issues secure beneath the surface.
As long as I keep a squeaky clean facade
Maintaining a flawless outward appearance to hide internal complexities.
Someone help me
Seeking help from others again.
Someone help me
Continued plea for assistance.
Whitewash this tomb
Requesting to conceal or whitewash a difficult situation.
Don't worry about the inside
Advising not to worry about the internal state.
It's gonna be alright
Assuring that everything will be fine internally.
Someone help me
Reiterating the call for help.
Someone help me
Continued plea for support.
Whitewash this tomb
A repetition of the request to conceal or whitewash a troubling situation.
