lyrics

So Much for the Secret

blank puzzle, nine pieces
three hearts were buried underneath
no concept, ill emotion
the boroughs were blanketed with sound

and if we even tried, we wouldn't find out why
so much for the secret
and all we ever knew was just a book to you

found the time to hold up your glass of wine
you'll try, you'll find
everything we see, believe, conceive,
where we all agree

the right pocket to discover and recover islands from the blue
in a cottage in the country, you learn something from your solitude

but I hate it when I need it, so I keep a secret
and I could never claim pure providence, this confidence

it takes patience to hear the story
the books beneath the bed
it takes courage to speak with royal blood

we are slightly accelerating
