I have kept the matter private today All to myself locked safely away I have stood aside with my fire Until I gave myself away Who said that the coast is clear? Who said so? Who said that the coast is clear? Who said that the coast is clear? Who said so? Who said that the coast is clear? Roaming my head I remain Bruised and branded every time I have shoved heaven to hell Like a criminal committing his crime Who said that the coast is clear? Who said so? Who said that the coast is clear? Who said that the coast is clear? Who said so? Who said that the coast is clear? You are withholding what I want to hear You are withholding what I want to hear You are withholding what I want to hear You are withholding what I want to hear Down in the catacombs of grief Where fear and loss do often meet Is where I am martyring my head Abandoned by you soothing me Who said that the coast is clear? Who said so? Who said that the coast is clear? Who said that the coast is clear? Who said so? Who said that the coast is clear? Who will stand up for my rights? Who will find me when I am lost? Will you be my consoling light If I should lose what I love most? Who said that the coast is clear? Who said so? Who said that the coast is clear? Who said that the coast is clear? Who said so? Who said that the coast is clear? (Nothing is clear that you don't hear)
