Our secrets are all gone, they’re all out, they’ve all flown away into the skies,
You’ve got more secrets then I could ever guess, I’ve got more secrets than I ever realized
Every truth has been seen, every truth has been heard,
And they’re all out in the open, oh they’re all out in the open
You’ve spelled out every word, every whisper that you never wanted to be heard
We’ve sketched our pain into the sky, carved it deep into the dirt
The balloons fly high, and they reach the sky, and they set our secrets free
And our minds take us down, and we crash against the ground, I finally see you, and you see me
Oh, there’s metaphors and little rhymes that swirl through the air
We’ve run out of truths to tell, you settle for a dangerous dare, a dangerous dare
Emotions are safe at night, but what happens when they see the light?
They make us smile, they make us cry, they make us fight
There’s poetry in your words, there’s poetry in my dreams
There’s a smile on your lips and I think you’re what it means to be free
I wouldn’t mind getting stranded with you, I wouldn’t mind getting stranded with you
I whisper these secrets into the air, and I don’t think I’ve ever said anything so true, never said anything so true
My dreams are filled with tattoos, and colors, and secrets falling from pitch-black lips
We’re dancing, we’re singing, your hands are in my hair, my hands are on your hips
I’m the stars, you’re the sun, once words are said, they can’t be undone
You make me smile, you make me cry, you say goodbye, and I lie here stunned
I can’t stop, these words, from tumbling off my lips
My heart tumbles, my heart breaks, it bleeds, it screams, it rips
There’s a metaphor, squeezed in my heart, that fits just you and I,
Just like a glove, it’s just like love, fits together just like blood and black eyes
There’s candles, and fireworks, and sparklers that singe our fingers
There’s a party, everyone leaves, till we’re the only ones that linger
And I can’t breathe right now, and the doctor will see you now
And I don’t know what to think, and I can’t say a word, anyhow, anyhow.
So go on, go and chase your dreams, so go on, and leave me behind
I’ll lie here, and I’ll dream, of a forgotten future, where we lay intertwined
Cause our secrets, lay out in the moonlight
And I spilled one too many secrets tonight
And I said your name, but you never said mine
And my eyes would be filled with tears, but I told you that it’s fine
I want you to adore me, to love me like I love you
But you won’t, but you can’t, and I don’t know what to do
There’s nobody to blame, there’s nobody who can fix this
Cause there’s nothing wrong with you, there’s nothing to fix
So I say nothing, and that there is my decision,
I wipe away my tears to fix my blurry vision.
And I write your name into the sky. Oh, I carve your name into the sky.
And you let me try to deny it all, and you hold me as I cry, you hold me as I cry.
