The Truth I'll Never Tell

(album: The Great Depression - 2018)

How long's it been, it must be months
I swear this time I meant to keep in touch
Like always
I'm calmly coasting off the rails
My teeth in battle with my fingernails
Like always

And I could tell you how I've really been
But would you even want to know

Don't want to bring you down, down, down
If I open my mouth I'm only gonna bring you
Down, down, down
Bring you down, down, down
Bring you down

I organize the kitchen shelf
When I've been dwelling on my mental health
Like always
I'm bitter when I feel alone
I consciously confiscate my phone
It's a small change

And I could tell you how I've really been
But would you even want to know

Don't want to bring you down, down, down
If I open my mouth I'm only gonna bring you
Down, down, down
Bring you down, down, down

I feel the darkest cloud creeping in
I'd tell you but I wouldn't want to bring you
Down, down, down
Bring you down, down, down
Bring you down

I turn around, you're gone again
I know I'll see you now and then
You'll say hello and how you've been
I'll say that I'm not better yet

(I wish that there was more to say)
I turn around, you're gone again
I know I'll see you now and then
You'll say hello and how you've been
I'll say that I'm not better yet

(I wish that there was more to say)
I turn around, you're gone again
I know I'll see you now and then
You'll say hello and how you've been
I'll say that I

Don't want to bring you down, down, down
If I open my mouth I'm only gonna bring you
Down, down, down
Bring you down, down, down

I feel the darkest cloud creeping in
I'd tell you but I wouldn't want to bring you
Down, down, down
Bring you down, down, down
Bring you down...

Down...
Bring you down...
Down...
Bring you down...
