Tell Me Your Secrets

(album: The Strings That Tie Us Together - 2018)

I've been feeling down
And I've been passing out
Hand-scripted writings from the wall

I've been losing sleep
Find it hard to eat
When emotion fills my lungs
The water coming down

And I can feel the echoes on their way
Hold on tight for the soundwave to rock me
Back and forth

And I need a hand to hold on to
But I'm afraid I'd be losing you

Tell me your secrets
That's where we can start
Conversations opens up with wounds that left scars
Nothing too deep
Nothing too hard
But tell me your secrets
It's a good place to start

Listen, I'm self-conscious
I don't give out much
I stir up the nonsense so it feels like I'm mixing it up
But I'm stuck in a cycle of counterclockwise
Counterattack seeps into my muscles
And I'm thrown right back

And these days, I feel defenseless
But I need to know I'm not the only one with
Messy senses

Tell me your secrets
That's where we can start
Conversation opens up with wounds that left scars
Nothing to deep
Nothing too hard
But tell me your secrets
It's a good place to start

Give me something back
So I know I'm not pulling you under
Show me you won't crack under the weight
'Cause I'm afraid
Oh, so afraid

Tell me your secrets
That's where we can start
Conversation opens up with wounds that left scars
Nothing too deep
Nothing too hard
But tell me your secrets
It's a good place to start
