"Secret" lyrics - THE BIRTHDAY MASSACRE

I woke up as I waited,, bleeding slow
There was no way to make all this blow over, so
I started writing the ending, I said too much
And you just kept on pretending for both of us

[Chorus:]
I could never speak in a way
What you wanted to hear, I couldn't convey
We were just sinking too fast to save
The two of us whispering hope away

All the days that I've counted, you'll never know
All that I promised, you doubted, I told you so
Forget the words that were spoken, and thoughts erased
Let's burn the path that was chosen, without a trace

[Chorus:]
I could never speak in a way
What you wanted to hear, I couldn't convey
We were just sinking too fast to save
The two of us whispering hope away

[Instrumental bridge]

[Outro:]
I could never speak in a way
What you wanted to hear, I couldn't convey
We were just sinking too fast to save
The two of us whispering hope away
