The Secret
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I watch breathing, I can't believe you sleep so calm
With all the dirty things that you've done to me
My eyes are a curse, you see
'Cause they 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
The crying out at night
It's not about what's wrong
The secret just 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 your eyes they flicker, you must be dreaming evil dreams
Are you eating someone's heart, is it what it seems
You smile wouldn't 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
The crying out at night
It's not about what's wrong
The secret just 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
You will kick at the base
I will take it
You make a promise
You always break it
I've lived in this shadow shame
For too long
So why am I doing
Why do I choose to stay
These things just don't get better somehow
The crying out at night
It's not about what's wrong
The secret just 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
