(Verse)

I've got a secret

It's creeping under my skin, it's whispering within

And I can't escape it

I've got a secret

It haunts my silence, claws its way through me

It grows like poison in my pain

(Pre-Chorus)

Cracking bones,

We'll see ghosts at my door

Breaking tones,

This sickness runs deeperin my own

(Chorus)

The only thing I really know,

I'm sinking and choking on regret,

The only thing I really know,

I can't breathe tonight

I'm sinking and choking on regret

(Verse 2)

I may laugh loudly,

The only time I’ll really grin

I hear the sirens,

they call for me they taste my fear,

(Bridge)

Repent ! Repent ! the clock runs dry

Repent ! Repent !we're all bound to lie

Repent ! Repent ! these shadows will break us

So bow your head and pray for !!

(Instruments slow down, vocals get heavier and more emotional)

Why would he believe in me?

Why would he believe in me?

WHY WOULD HE BELIEVE IN ME !!

FUCK IT !!

(Instruments pause briefly, vocals drop to a whisper)

Can you feel it?

The weight of every lie

It’s burning in my chest

While I’m waiting just to die

(Beat drops back in hard, vocals scream with raw emotion)

Rip me apart, let the darkness in

This shadow’s not leaving, it’s under my skin

I am the secret, I am the curse

And this regret will only make it worse!

(Instruments build up, vocals powerful and desperate)

The only thing I really know, I’m drowning tonight

These shadows are screaming, pulling me out of sight

The only thing I really know, I can’t breathe tonight

I'm buried and bleeding, suffocating in this fight

(Instruments drop out briefly, vocals almost whispered)

The only thing I really know... (pause) I can't save myself

(Beat explodes back in, vocals raw and intense)

The only thing I really know, I’m drowning tonight

These shadows are screaming, pulling me out of sight

The only thing I really know, I can’t breathe tonight

I'm buried and bleeding, suffocating in this fight
