[Intro] [Verse 1] From the outside, I'm the one who shines so bright, while your beauty grows through time and out of sight People ask: "How did she score a man like him?" What they see is just a lie, a surface-skim. [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus 1] I've got a secret that I keep with you. I am an addict, it's the only thing that's true. You don't ask – you carry all the weight I'm out of control, sealing our fate When we're alone. When we're alone. [Instrumental break] [Verse 2] From the outside, I'm the one they see and chase, while you're the steady one who holds me in place. Looks like you got lucky – lucky finding me. But what they don't see is we're drowning in the deep. [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus 2] We've got a secret that you keep 'cause you're so loyal. I'm addicted, watch my whole damn life uncoil. You don't ask – you let me dose myself to numb. I'm out of control – when the daylight fades I come undone. When we're alone. When we're alone. [Instrumental interlude] [Verse 3] From the outside, I'm the one who draws them in, but what's outside of me don't match what lies within. In our quiet moments, there's a balance that I break. That's the price we pay, that's the choice I always make. [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus 3] I've got a secret that I keep with you. I am an addict, it's the only thing that's true. You don't ask – I'm reckless and I'm dangerous. I'm out of control, and I know I'm breaking us. When we're alone. When we're alone. [Bridge] I'm still choosing misery and pain, knowing that the scars I leave in you will always remain, But I'm caught in my addiction's grip – no choice to make, choosing misery and madness even though I can't forgive the man I've been, even though I leave you scarred and broken from within. [Outro] I've got a secret that I keep with you. I am an addict, it's the only thing that's true. You don't ask – I see you break inside I'm out of control, watching while you hide When we're alone. [Fade] When we're alone. I'm out of control When we're alone I'm out of control [End]
