Lyrics

The Secret

[Verse 1]

I watch you breathing

I can't believe you sleep so calm

With all the dirty things that you've done to me

My eyes are my curse you see

'Cause you see an angel

And not the demon child you've been

Fucking with my head once again it seems

Still I'm willing to believe

[Chorus]

The crying out at night

It's not about what's wrong

The secret you slipped outside to hide

As this life moves on

I can't hold on

And I feel like I can't ever get over it

[Verse 2]

And your eyes flicker

You must be dreaming evil dreams

Are you eating someone's heart

Is it what it seems?

Your smile would make them scream

But I know your sadness

There has to be a better way

Someone get me some kind of priest to pray

Some kind of words to say

[Chorus]

The crying out at night

It's not about what's wrong

The secret you slipped outside to hide

As this life moves on, I can't hold on

And I feel like I can't ever get over it

[Bridge]

You kick me in the face, I will take it

You make a promise, you always break it

I've lived in this shadow shame for so long

So what am I doing? Why do I choose to stay?

This thing don't just get better somehow

[Chorus]

The crying out at night

It's not about what's wrong

The secret you slipped outside to hide

As this life moves on, I can't hold on

And I feel like I can't ever get over it

And I feel like I can't ever get over it

And I feel like I can't ever get over it
