I don't know why
I see the truth in every line
Call me naive
But I would rather believe

And when I look into your eyes
I've seen an awful lot of lies
You hide behind
You know I know what it means
To be fraying at the seams
Out of my mind

If I tell you a secret
Will you promise to keep it
Keep it close to your heart
And never tell a soul?
Because I have a secret
And it's hell trying to keep it
It tears right through my heart
And it swallows me whole

I don't know why
I feel my faith is on the line
How things appear
Seem to be ever unclear
When I look into your eyes
I've seen an awful lot of lies
You hide behind
You know I know what it means
To be fraying at the seams
Out of my mind

If I tell you a secret
Will you promise to keep it
Keep it close to your heart
And never tell a soul?
Because I have a secret
And it's hell trying to keep it
It tears right through my heart
And it swallows me whole

If I tell you a secret
Will you promise to keep it
Keep it close to your heart
And never tell a soul?
Because I have a secret
And it's hell trying to keep it
It tears right through my heart
And it swallows me whole
