Secrets

I've been counting all the steps from the bed to the sink

It's the farthest that I've got in five days maybe a week

Can I tell you a secret

Can I tell you a secret

I'll pretend

That it's not eating me alive

Yeah I'll pretend

That I'm doing just fine

I feel so temporary

Now everybody wants the best of me

Can I tell you a secret

Do you promise to keep it

I feel the tide start to rise and it's drowning me

I'll pretend

That it's not eating me alive

Yeah I'll pretend that I'm doing just fine

Can I tell you a secret

Can I tell you a secret

Everybody wants the best of me

Been searching far and wide

For anything to heal the way I feel inside

But my shadow takes a toll

And every time that I try

To find some new peace of mind

I tear myself back down

When will it end

Please show me how

Look in the mirror and it's troubling

Cause I can't make out the person that I know I am

I take a hundred steps

Each one lighter than the last

So at least I'm moving forward

And I'm never turning back

I'll pretend

I'll pretend

That it's not eating me alive

Eating me alive

Yeah I'll pretend

I'll pretend

That I'm doing just fine

I'm doing just fine

Oooooh

Can I tell you a secret

Can I tell you a secret

Do you promise to keep it

Promise to keep it

Can I tell you a secret
