Lyrics Silverstein – Secret’s Safe

I dug myself out of my grave
A box of pine and dirt remain
And every insecurity I’ve left there with it
I laughed at every word you said

I’ll leave it all behind and justify it just between you and me
I buried all the misery, but it’s clawing back now
It’s every move and everything you do
You’ll never make me forget the things I’ve seen
I know my secret’s safe with me

I took the stairs, I climbed so high
On every floor I told a lie
And at the top I tried to fly
But stayed here with you
The door keeps opening
It brings a gust of cold and crawling skin
I’m comfortable but I just sinned silently
And that’s just like me

I’ll leave it all behind and justify it just between you and me
I buried all the misery, but it’s clawing back now
It’s every way you move and everything you do
You’ll never make me forget the things I’ve seen
I know my secret’s safe with me

Fail me, spill me
Leave this mess behind
You may not have a lot to give
But I’ll still take it
Make me, hate me

A perfect heart I never was
I lied to everyone I loved
It made them love me even more
And made me hate myself

I’ll leave it all behind and justify it just between you and me
I buried all the misery, but it’s clawing back now
It’s every way you move and everything you do
You’ll never make me forget the things I’ve seen
I know my secret’s safe with me
