Overlord - Secrets In Pairs lyrics

SECRETS IN PAIRS

It seems as though

My whispers have echoes

Since everyone knows

Everything I ever said to anyone in confidence

Admittedly this is of little consequence

What does he know?

Your outrage rings hollow

In retrospect or did you mean

I'll never do the awful things they did to me

Yes unless I get the opportunity

This was before I was aware

You keep your secrets in pairs

This was before I cared

You keep your secrets in pairs

It's how you buy intimacy

You barter with your hidden horde

Of others' fragile admissions as currency

You're rolling in transmuted former loyalties

This was before I learned

You keep your secrets in pairs

This was before I'd heard

You keep my secrets in pairs

It comes and goes

The methods are borrowed

You can dispense with pleasantries

Don't worry all your confessions are safe with me

Clearly I am inured to asymmetry

Somewhere in there I learned

You keep my secrets in pairs

Somewhere in there you'd dared

To keep my secrets in pairs
