They stick in your throat and refuse to leave your mouth
I lost sense of myself whilst hiding from the truth
Lost 15 years of my life whilst hiding love from you
Love is a fickle thing
That's what you said to me
You know you could be happy if you wanted to be
Hand me down love letters
From those I've loved before
I keep them hidden
Those words mean nothing to me anymore
Everybody's heart breaks in the same way
The beginning and the end are one in the same
You don't have love if you're not scared to lose it
We keep these secrets
Until they're dead and faded away
I had to hide it from you
You wouldn't expect it from me
I couldn't give it to you
If you'd asked me
I had to hide it from you
You wouldn't expect it from me
I couldn't give it to you
If you'd asked me
Everybody's heart breaks in the same way
The beginning and the end are one in the same
You don't have love if you're not scared to lose it
We keep these secrets
Until they're dead and faded away
For what it's worth
I'm sorry I kept from you
I was just so scared
Of accepting my own truth
Our love for each other
Is buried in those woods
