I see you hanging on

By a worn-out bootlace

In a cool shade of blue

From all the images you chase

I know a game that you might like to play

I will pull this thread

And then just walk away

Watch it come undone

Hey don't you think that sounds fun?



Tell me a secret

I'll keep it like it's mine

If you're in need of confession

You can call me any time



I think you're holding out

Holding your breath and waiting

To feel something more than anticipating

You might like it and start begging me to stay

Nothing ventured, nothing gained

I won't tell anyone

Hey don't you think that sounds fun?



Tell me a secret

I'll keep it like it's mine

If you're in need of confession

You can call me any time



You hope and pray

You sit and wait

For someone to save you from yourself

I'll be the one

You can come clean to

And I promise I won't tell

(Promise I won't tell)

And I'll save you from yourself



Tell me a secret

I'll keep it like it's mine

If you're in need of confession

You can call me any time
