Greenwood Oklahoma, June of 21,
Someone set the night on fire.
Lost a lot of people as the day begun,
Who lit the funeral pyre?
On an elevator in the heart of town,
Someone make somebody scream.
Black and white, going up and down.
Who s gonna lose a dream?
Dirty Little Secret.
Headlines printed in the daily news
Awake the sleeping rage inside.
Disarm the people, keep em all confused.
Kill before they turn the tide.
Dirty Little Secrets going round,
Whispering from ear to ear.
Burning down the very heart of town.
Nobody shed a tear.
Dirty Little Secret, Dirty Little Secret.
Look up to the sky, your tears fall from the clouds
But Greenwood don t you cry, just shout it right out loud.
It s such a Dirty Little Secret.
Getting so much darker every day.
It s hard to rise above it all.
