| I shared a secret
|
| One that you could never keep
|
| And how you just breathe it
|
| To everyone that you ever meet
|
| And when I heard it
|
| Second hand, so to speak
|
| I saw that I was someone else
|
| And you became just someone else
|
| And all of the stories
|
| How they just flow right out of your mouth
|
| Now all of their glory
|
| Was not enough to go around
|
| If they're all hungry
|
| Yeah, they're only mouths to feed
|
| And you can all say no
|
| No, I could never say no
|
| But now the writing's on our walls
|
| As the curtains take their call
|
| And we slip through the seams, through the inbetween
|
| Of a truth and a lie, of a God and a sky
|
| Of a widow and bride, of you and I
|
| So bury your weakness
|
| And chew the marrow from the bone
|
| Keep yourself a secret
|
| From all of those who've always known
|
| It's been revealing
|
| Ignore your skin as it peels away
|
| It's been revealing
|
| What you could never begin to explain
|
| There's the writing on our walls
|
| As the curtains take their call
|
| And we slip through the seams, through the inbetween
|
| Of a truth and a lie, of a God and a sky
|
| Of a widow and bride, of you and I
|
| I won't let it happen again
|
| I won't let it happen again
|
| I won't let it happen again
|
| I won't let it happen again
|
| I won't let it happen again
|
| I won't let it happen again |
