A Beautiful Secret
The crowd tapping their watches
As they tie me to the tracks
I see a king on every corner
While they watch their deadline pass
This complicated friendship
Is personalising everything
I'm counting down the hours
And wait for the next best thing
You're putting on that face
With my name in every answer
What more is there to show you?
What more comes from this cancer?
This beautiful secret
I gave it only half a chance
I turned back in silence
Like a black and white photograph
These self-made voices come and go
These self-made voices come and go
I wrap you in my paper arms
With lifted lines and phrases
But as weightless as they are
You're still leaving me
Leaving me
While looking out for the sun
Deep in this building I built while you're
Leaving me
While looking out for the sun
Deep in this building I built while you're
As they tie me to the tracks
I see a king on every corner
While they watch their deadline pass
This complicated friendship
Is personalising everything
I'm counting down the hours
And wait for the next best thing
You're putting on that face
With my name in every answer
What more is there to show you?
What more comes from this cancer?
This beautiful secret
I gave it only half a chance
I turned back in silence
Like a black and white photograph
These self-made voices come and go
These self-made voices come and go
I wrap you in my paper arms
With lifted lines and phrases
But as weightless as they are
You're still leaving me
Leaving me
While looking out for the sun
Deep in this building I built while you're
Leaving me
While looking out for the sun
Deep in this building I built while you're
