Once I was invisible For all the world to see I travelled through the ether on The blood of my enemies And if they dared to whisper When they thought they were alone Then I was just as deadly as A bug on the telephone And though I was a child And though I knew it well You'd only know deliverance To hope I would never tell The night began to close around The neighbourhood again But as I walked the streets the devil Tumbled down my brain And though I was a child And I knew right from wrong Three can keep a secret if Two are dead and gone Not a long way away On and on let us pray The secret of my mystery Will never see the dawn And you will never ever know If you were once my pawn When I was a child And when I went away You were not the victim for It was you who let me stay
