Lyrics

A costly decision with no chance of revision seems I’m fucked right out of the gate.

I’m staring down the barrel of this wrath and peril and clearly no way to escape.

Could anyone notice
My look or my motive one glance could give it away

Should I get discovered and the secrets uncovered it could set the sun on this day

I could run from it all and let someone else take the fall

So I’ll keep my secret, never share a moment and never tell
Why

I’ll hide this story, refrain from the glory and keep what you can’t buy

No rhyme no reason, you can hang me up for treason. I’ve never been a patron saint. If it’s the secrets you want, don’t try to taunt me, cause all you’re gonna get is restraint

I could run from it all and let someone else take the fall

Ducking, weaving, thought concealing a well planned subterfuge

I’ll hold it tight because its’s something I can’t lose

But my nerves are shattered, psyche battered I just might give it away

But it won’t happen with me the secret stays
