FAWM: "Secrets"

Secrets

Liner Notes

You know when you are close to someone, close enough to have secrets, and know their secrets, and they know your secrets and then you aren't that close anymore, and you have these secrets that you're not sure what to do with or what they might do with yours???
This song is sort of about that previous run on sentence.

Lyrics

I’ll keep your secrets safe
I’ll keep your secrets close
There is no other way, But you already know

I’ll keep your secrets safe
I’ll keep your secrets close
cause we’ve got nowhere left to go

I’m ruminating over all this mess
still floundering about what’s coming next
these secrets searching for a place to land
give in to trust, but no one is close at hand

I’ll keep your secrets safe
but now I have to go
I’ll stuff them with my the other
baggage I have in tow

I’m contemplating how to keep you safe
my secrets written in the lines on my face
our secrets hide away and burn inside
snowballing avalanche from one white lie

I’m ruminating over all this mess
still floundering about what’s coming next
these secrets searching for a place to land
give in to trust, but no one is close at hand

This chromatic stepping makes this magic, "secret" feeling very clearly. Liked the mood. And yeah, I'm familiar with the situation when you are not with someone anymore but know too much about each other. Great song idea!
