Keep It

Here's what happens, you get a bit alone

Not everybody gets that time on their own

What's in that box? Man, you know it's not my head

Maybe just all the stupid shit I said over the years

♪

Your days go on endless and your months end up there, too

I'd let you hurt me, baby, if it's something to do

You were the best one, the best I ever had

But even that best one can still turn bad over the years

That's a secret

I'll keep it

♪

I never felt so old

I've never felt so dumb before

♪

Up on that ladder how'd I get so high

I don't remember getting home last night

If I keep on climbing, won't choose the best way down

And every night in those dreams I drown

So I think I need a leg up, I think I need a boost

Got caught in that barbed wire fence

Just like you said was gonna happen

So I'm leaving it to you

I clean out my desk and I lick my wounds

If that's your secret

I'll keep it

I'm never going out again

♪

But if that's a secret

I'll keep it
