and i just fell in the deep end, 
like a lush without her weekend
but i wrote this for you kid. 
its not what i wanted, i need it.
but man its a long trip, 
from all the crazy things I've seen in this world
I'm blessed, I guess.

but what if i was a secret, 
and you couldn't keep it.
and i swear i saw something good in your eyes before.
and if i sang it in the right key 
and i asked you politely for you to find a way home.

i find it difficult to sleep when all the walls they just seem to 
speak to me.
and its kind of funny that i laugh because my hearts so fucked up 
i can barely stand 
the sights and sounds of the cars outside, 
the red and greens on the traffic light 
that the only thing i got is this, 

memories that make me smile, 
a girl to stand there so she can admire the way 
i can never ever really keep my hands to myself. 
but the alcohol it taste so sweet, 
when its mixed with lies and defeat of 
all the battles i lost and lost again.

but what if i was a secret, 
and you couldn't keep it.
and i swear i saw something good in your eyes before.
and if i sang it in the right key 
and i asked you politely for you to find a way home.

but what if you were the secret, 
and i didn't see it
and i swear to god i wish these thoughts of mine
could create the sunshine 
as beautiful as your eyes I'd paint this night sky.
and its not like you need this, 
i just wanted you to see it
tonight.
