Secrets We Keep by Fade to Us
Secrets We Keep
[Verse 1 – Person A]
I see you across the room,
(Your eyes are hiding truths I can’t assume.)
Every smile, every laugh, a little disguise,
I feel the weight of words you don’t confide.
[Verse 1 – Person B]
I’ve tried to tell you, but I freeze,
Locked inside the walls of my unease…
Every glance, every touch, I hold inside,…
The secret I’ve been too scared to confide.
[Pre-Chorus – Both]
We’re dancing in the dark,
Afraid to leave a mark….
How did we get so far apart,
While holding fire in our hearts?
[Chorus – Both]
We’re living in the shadows,
(Hiding what we feel,)
Torn between confession and conceal.
(Every heartbeat’s a whisper,)
Every word’s a leap,
We’re drowning in the secrets we keep.
[Verse 2 – Person A]
I’ve written letters I’ll never send,
Caught between the fear and the pretend…..
Every night I replay the chance I missed,
Your name on my lips, (a quiet wish.)
[Verse 2 – Person B]
I’ve built a fortress around my truth,
Afraid it’ll break the bond of our youth.
(But the more I hide, the more I ache,)
The longer we wait, the more we break….
[Pre-Chorus – Both]
The silence cuts too deep,
These secrets we can’t keep.
( Can we tear down the walls we’ve made,)
Or will this love just fade away?
[Chorus – Both]
We’re living in the shadows,
Hiding what we feel,
(Torn between confession and conceal.)
Every heartbeat’s a whisper,….
Every word’s a leap,
We’re drowning in the secrets we keep.
[Bridge – Both]
I don’t want to hide anymore…
( I’m ready to open the door…)
If we take this chance, it could be right,
Or burn us down in the night.
[Breakdown – Both, Soft, Emotional]
Can you hear me?
I can feel you…
( Every secret, every fear,)
It’s time to let them disappear.
[Chorus – Both, Big & Climactic]
We’re leaving all the shadows,
Showing what we feel,
No more confessions left to conceal.
Every heartbeat’s a whisper,
Every word’s a leap,
We’re breaking free from the secrets we keep.
[Outro – Both, Soft & Resolute]
No more secrets…
No more secrets…
The love we’ve hidden, finally ours to keep.
