Detroit Was Built On Secrets

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.

It's a shame we'll never let this see the light of day

But don't be afraid,

your secret's safe with me

And only Heaven knows how far we'll go

to keep them on their toes,

and don't you dare be scared with sins to bare,

'cause this is who we are

I'll be the reason you're wrong,

but I don't want to be the reason they find you out

Somebody's got it in for you

so don' make a sound, don't make a sound,

don't let them get the best of you, the best of you

They'll sink their teeth in

if you let them catch you

If these streets could talk

then I'd know just what they'd say,

"you're reckless at best but you got carried away, you got carried away"

We can really be some devils,

and these stories have a way of telling themselves

Are we don't raising hell?

This time we'll keep the best ones for ourselves

I'll be the reason you're wrong,

but I don't want to be the reason they find you out

Somebody's got it in for you

so don' make a sound, don't make a sound,

don't let them get the best of you, the best of you

They'll sink their teeth in

if you let them catch you

This city was built on secrets,

it's where all the good ones come from

You must have missed me,

'cause you don't have a thing to say everã time I go away

So this is what we're up against

in this city of secrets

OH MY GOD, FORGIVE ME FOR WHO I'M NOT!

We'll all steal looks when we can,

driving by the accident,

but we never stop

I'll be the reason you're wrong,

but I don't want to be the reason they find you out

Somebody's got it in for you

so don' make a sound, don't make a sound,

don't let them get the best of you, the best of you

They'll sink their teeth in

if you let them catch you

I'll be the reason you're wrong (you're wrong),

but I don't want to be the reason they find you out

Somebody's got it in for you

so don' make a sound, don't make a sound,

don't let them get the best of you, the best of you

They'll sink their teeth in

if you let them catch you
