So keep secrets
Keep the hurt
Don’t give anything away
Keep quiet
Keep strong
Don’t let anybody see you cry
Fake love
Fake life
Fake music
Fake friendships
Fake shyness
Fake being fake
Fake confidence in yourself
Fake empathy for everybody else
Fake death
Fake suicide
Fake all the cuts on your hands
You got from dragging yourself through life
Everybody knows how to hurt when you’re broken
Everybody wants to take back the words that hurt you once there spoken
Well that could be solved
So easily
Well that could be solved
By making everybody ordinary
So keep tough
Keep strong
Keep loving as the day is long
Keep being that human kind
That beats anything that comes along
Fake life
Fake death
Fake taking your last breath
Well it’s hard to fake anything when there’s simply nothing left
Everybody loves to love a new heart when its strong
Everybody loves to love the next best thing that comes along
Well that could be solved
So easily
Well that could be solved
By making everybody ordinary
But you’re not ordinary
Keep secrets
Keep the hurt
Don’t give anything away
Keep quiet
Keep strong
Don’t let anybody see you cry
Because everybody makes mistakes
Everybody will one day change
Everybody acts so differently but we all feel the exact same way
Everybody knows how to hurt when your broken
Everybody wants to take back the words that hurt you once there spoken
Everybody loves to love a new heart when its strong
Everybody loves to love the next best thing that comes along
It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days.
Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago. modestwriggles
