NOBODY NEEDS TO KNOW<\/p>\n
Hey, kid.
\nGood morning.
\nYou look like an angel.
\nI don’t remember when we fell asleep.
\nWe should get up, kid.
\nCathy is waiting…<\/p>\n
Look at us,
\nlying here
\nDreaming, pretending
\nI made a promise, and I took a vow,
\nI wrote a story
\nAnd we changed the ending
\nCathy, just look at me now.<\/p>\n
Hold on, facts are facts
\nJust relax, lay low,
\nAll right, the panic recedes:
\nNobody needs to know<\/p>\n
Put on my armor
\nI’m off to Ohio
\nBack into battle
\ntill I don’t know when
\nSwearing to her
\nthat I never was with you
\nAnd praying I’ll hold you again<\/p>\n
Hold on, clip these wings.
\nThings get out of hand
\nAll right, it’s over, it’s done
\nNo one will understand
\nNo one will understand<\/p>\n
We build a treehouse
\nI keep it from shaking
\nLittle more glue every time that it breaks
\nPerfectly balanced
\nAnd then I start making
\nConscious, deliberate mistakes<\/p>\n
All that I ask for is one little corner
\nOne private room at the back of my heart
\nTell her I found one, she sends out battalions
\nTo claim it and blow it apart<\/p>\n
I grip and she grips
\nAnd faster we’re sliding
\nSliding and spilling
\nAnd what can I do?
\nCome back to bed, kid
\nTake me inside you
\nI promise I won’t lie to you<\/p>\n
Hold on, don’t cry yet
\nI won’t let you go
\nAll right, the panic recedes
\nAll right, everyone bleeds
\nAll right, I get what I need
\nAnd nobody needs to know
\nNobody needs to know<\/p>\n
And since I have to be in love with someone
\nSince I need to be in love with someone
\nMaybe I could be in love with someone
\nLike you<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
