"Secret" Lyrics

The way that they found out
I know it's some kind of a mystery
You say that you won't crack
And now your mind blocks out the history

When I say can you wait
To take this any bit further
I can't fake what I made
I knew that it would only hurt her
But I said

Can you keep a secret
I guess I should have known better
I heard you repeat it
The words were lost in that letter
Now I'm off the deep end
Where I'll try to defend
Can you keep a secret
I guess I should have known better

I see now the way down
Is always faster than the way out
I know how this dark cloud
Just started from the note that you found

When you say the right thing
Is only to keep this between us
But I made the mistake
Of trusting in your simple thesis
But I said

Can you keep a secret
I guess I should have known better
I heard you repeat it
The words were lost in that letter
Now I'm off the deep end
Where I'll try to defend
Can you keep a secret
I guess I should have known better

Hurry up you take so long
Tell me now what I did wrong
I thought that you could handle it
Now I'm off I've been displaced
'Cause you looked me in the face
When you found my hiding place

But I said, I said, yeah I said

Can you keep a secret
I guess I should have known better
I heard you repeat it
The words were lost in that letter
Now I'm off the deep end
Where I'll try to defend
Can you keep a secret
I guess I should have known better
