Your Secrets

YOUR SECRETS - Written by Carroll Bryant 

So, you want to take a piece of me?

Your words are a fine place to start

Just smack me so hard until I can’t see

Spin my world around in its own misery

To be the dominate one

You’re the epitome Of everything

Of everything that’s wrong with me

Once upon a lonely time

You used to be on my mind

Now I’m just finding out

That you were never the one

Once upon a midnight star

I used to think I knew who you really are

But now I know you’re not the one

All the lies you told for fun

Has led me to believe

That you’re not the girl for me

Because girl, I can clearly see

You have more secrets than anyone

More secrets than the sun

And I can’t fight your secrets

No, you can’t take another bite

Of what you know you want from me

It starts with a flash of light in my eyes

The darkness is a place to hide

Living like a solitary one

You’re the cornerstone of all my dreams

Crashing down right in front of me

Once upon a lonely time

You used to be on my mind

Now I’m just finding out

That you were never the one

Once upon a midnight star

I used to think I knew who you really are

But now I know you’re not the one

All the lies you told for fun

Has led me to believe

That you’re not the girl for me

Because girl, I can clearly see

You have more secrets than anyone

More secrets than the sun

And I can’t fight your secrets

I raise my sword to battle

All of your little demons

And girl it is a struggle

I lift my head and hold it up high

To demonstrate

I’m alright tonight

I raise my sword to slay it

The dragon heart in you

And girl you know it

I lift my head to see the damage

To eliminate

All your fairytales

All your magic spells

Don’t look at me in that way

Girl, what the hell?

So, you want to take a piece of me?

Your words are a fine place to start

Just smack me so hard until I can’t see

Smack right out of my misery

Once upon a lonely time

You used to be on my mind

Now I’m just finding out

That you were never the one

Once upon a midnight star

I used to think I knew who you really are

But now I know you’re not the one

All the lies you told for fun

Has led me to believe

That you’re not the girl for me

Because girl, I can clearly see

You have more secrets than anyone

More secrets than the sun

More secrets than the sun

More secrets than anyone

And I can’t fight your secrets
