Secrets

The morning after
The only laughter
Echoes from the night before
I'm feeling broken
Words already spoken
Lay crumpled
And hurt on the floor

Except for those
That I should not have said
Guarded secrets
Locked inside my head
Oh, what did I tell
Precious gems entrusted to me
Those were struggling to be free
Uncontrolled
From my mouth they fell

Oh, secrets, some mine
Some his, some hers, secrets

The truth's so easy
'Cause i'm so lazy
It comes so naturally
Oops, I told him
Just where you've been
Perhaps
I should not have told him

Please in future don't burden me
With your lies and your secrecy
I deal with my own
Because from my mouth they fell
I have trouble
Keeping things on the DL
When they're not seeds
That I've sown

Oh, secrets, some mine
Some his, some hers, secrets
Oh, secrets, some mine
Some his, some hers

Thought I'd keep it
Underneath my hat
But temptation won me over
Just like that
Thank you not
For the extra guilt I got
When you said what you said
I'm just a child
Wild and free
I need the time
To take care of me
Take the time to care
For number one so

Please in future don't burden me
With your lies and your secrecy
I deal with my own
Because from my mouth they fell
I have trouble
Keeping things on the DL
When they're the seeds
That I've sown

Oh, secrets, some mine
Some his, some hers, secrets
Oh, secrets, some mine
Some his, some hers
