Secret

How many times
Do I have to blow you off?
Before you start to realize
I can't face you anymore
I go out late at night
And don't come home until you've gone
You've left me breakfast on the counter
You're so relentless in your love

I've got a secret
And it's tearing us apart
I've got a secret
And it's tearing us apart
I'd like to face it
But I don't know where to start
Everyone is saying that I should come clean
But I just don't have the heart

To atone for one's crimes
Is easier said than done
If you could read between the lines
You wouldn't still think we're in love
But since we are
The ball is in my court
Yet I still find myself a few balls short

I've got a secret
And it's tearing us apart
I've got a secret
And it's tearing us apart
I'd like to face it
But I don't know where to start
Everyone is saying that I should come clean
But I just don't have the heart
Everyone is saying that I should come clean
But I just don't have the heart

In a perfect world
I would have control
It's not that I don't care

I just can't say no
No, I can't say no
I can't say no
I can't say no

I've got a secret
And it's tearing us apart
I've got a secret
And it's tearing us apart
I've got a secret
And it's tearing us apart
I've got a secret
And it's tearing us apart

Everyone is saying that I should come clean
But I just don't have the heart
Everyone is saying that I should come clean
But I just don't have the heart
Everyone is saying that I should come clean
But I just don't have the heart
Everyone is saying that I should come clean
But I just don't have the heart
