lyrics
Oh, this double life I lead,
the steady-handed shepherd, the sailor lost at sea.
Beneath the shine there’s a darkness deep inside
and it’s keeping me awake in the night.
Oh my cross my regret
The sins I fail to confess
Cause if you knew the man I am, surely there your love would end
So I’ll be keeping all my secrets buried deep.
To much time to think and no time left to breathe
Oh the current pulls me underneath the waves
The pills that I take, to keep my mind at bay
oh the lies I say when I say, “I’m doing great.”
I’m a rock. I’m a stone.
I’m a myth out on loan.
Cause if you knew the man I am, surely there your love would end
So I’ll be keeping all my secrets buried deep.
I’m a troubadour selling my wares door to door.
A penny for your hopes and fears.
Cause if our hearts were on display, we’d see we’re all the same.
We’re all just laughing, laughing through our tears.
Why betray.
This image I’ve made
Cause if you knew the man I am, surely there your love would end
So I’ll be keeping all my secrets buried deep.
