The morning after

The only laughter

Is that which echoes from the night before

I'm feelin' broken

Words already spoken lay crumpled

And hurt on the floor

Except for those that I should not have said

Guarded secrets locked inside my head

Oh, what did I tell

Precious gems entrusted to me

Those words struggling to be free

Uncontrolled, from my mouth they fell

[Chorus]:

Oh, secrets

Some mine

Some his

Some hers

Secrets

The truth's so easy

'Cause I'm so lazy

It comes so naturally

Oops, I told him

Just where you've been

Perhaps you should not have told him

Please in future, don't burden me

With your lies or your secrecy

I deal with my own

Because from my mouth they fell

I have trouble keeping things on the DL

When they're not seeds that I've sown

[Chorus 2x]

Thought I'd keep it underneath my hat

But temptation won me over just like that

Thank you not for the extra guilt I got

When you said what you said

I'm just a child, wild and free

I need the time to take care of me

Oh

Take the time to care for number one, so

Please in future don't burden me

With your lies or your secrecy

I deal with my own

Because from my mouth they fell

I have trouble keeping things on the DL

When they're the seeds that I've sown

[Chorus 2x]
