lyrics

Don’t tell me all of your secrets
‘cause I’ve heard them all before,
and I’ve already told them to everyone that I know.

I’ve written Verses of Vice,
and I’m sorry for the slander I’ve sown.
I wanted to tell you,
but I just couldn’t say it.

So come on say it,
say yes.

Don’t tell me all of your secrets.
You wrote them down and gave them to me
in an envelope
on the 5th of May.

I read them backwards and forwards
‘til I understood each word
of your confession
of clarity.

Well, this can’t be my mind playin’ the fool,
and this couldn’t be my body sayin’ play it cool.
‘Cause I’ve never been the one who had to lose.

So take it back,
‘cause I’m not gonna give it back.
Come on and take it back,
‘cause I’m not gonna give it back.
