[Verse 1]

Head against, against the rock

Beat the truth out of the block that is the comfort of a serpent's eyes

Her anchored soul has drowned

But the ocean makes no sound

As if any disturbance is romanced, romanced

As if any disturbance is romanced


[Chorus]

Hard to keep down the secret

Is that why her body pounds?

Is that why her body pounds?

(Secret, secret)

Hard to keep down the secret

Is that why her body pounds?

Symptoms of another's ill intent


[Verse 2]

She feels ashamed to hurt

So she'll keep the wall alert that soon the spill of guilt will replace

Far too many hearts would break

Break if they were wise

Forgetting is the God given grace, grace

But guilt still has a comfortable place in me


[Chorus]

Hard to keep down the secret

Is that why her body pounds?

Symptoms of another's ill intent

(Secret, secret)

Hard to keep down the secret

Is that why her body pounds?

Is that why her body pounds?

Is that why her body pounds?

Is that why?


[Outro]

Why?

Why the noxious swell of his face?

Why?

Why the noxious swell of his face?

Why?

Why the noxious swell of his face?

Why?

Why the noxious swell?

I'm hurting now
