Little Secrets Lyrics
by Passion Pit
Heard this song a few days ago on 100.5 in Birmingham, AL, and just loved it.
Most of this is direct from the "Manners Album Chords" already posted, but I think
a few chords weren't quite right. So I figured I might as well post the song by itself.
Enjoy :)
Little Secrets
Intro: Bb F C Dm
Verse 1:
When I came down the dawn poured into me
I shook 'em up, the walls came crumbling
My thin skin trembling with these salty wounds
My stolen gold inside the emperors tomb
Now painting rainbows on my ugly face
I built this cardboard neighborhood's disgrace
But I ascend and serve my feverish need
Within the confines of such chemistry
Pre-Chorus:
It's the way I see
Everything I need
It's the way to be
Chorus:
Let this be our little secret
No one needs to know we're feeling
Higher and higher and higher
Higher and higher and higher
But I feel alive and I feel it in me
up and up I keep on climbing
Higher and higher and higher
Higher and higher and higher
Refrain: Bb F Am Dm
Verse 2:
My face blew up at such a casual sight
The smattered colors of ecstatic fright
The rush above me to oblivion
Outlining wet sidewalks with halogen
Oh have you ever felt so goddamned strong?
How come it takes some people so damn long
He turned to squeeze the lemon juice to rain
The citrus drawing out the scene it stains
Pre-Chorus:
Watch the basin drain
As your life lines wane
And you cant explain
As your friends complain
You've caused all this pain
And you proudly shame
Your whole family's name
Chorus:
Let this be our little secret
No one needs to know we're feeling
Higher and higher and higher
Higher and higher and higher
But I feel alive and I feel it in me
up and up I keep on climbing
Higher and higher and higher
Higher and higher and higher
Bridge:
Mother I can tell what you've been thinking
staring at the stars on your ceiling
Thinking once there was a power that you were wielding
And now I've hit the mark
Stabbing at the dark
And I cannot help but ignore the people staring at my scars
Chorus:
Let this be our little secret
No one needs to know we're feeling
Higher and higher and higher
Higher and higher and higher
But I feel alive and I feel it in me
up and up I keep on climbing
Higher and higher and higher
Higher and higher and higher
