[Intro] [Verse 0] You've got a secret that you carry with you every day. You're an addict, and it's tearing us both away. You bear the guilt, you hate the man you've been, You want to change, I know you do, but then you choose again. You're out of control, and I bear the weight. [Verse 1] From the outside, you're the one who shines so bright, while my beauty only shows through time and light. People ask: "How did she catch a man like him?" What they see is just the surface, just the skim. Your mind seems sharp, but mine needs to be right. [Chorus 1] I've got a secret I don't even share with you. I need you broken, need you wrong, it's what I do. As long as you use, I know you're wrong and I am right. I have the control you lose when you fall into the night. You're wrong, I'm right – both by default. When we're alone. When we're alone. When we're alone. [Instrumental break] [Verse 2] From the outside, I'm the one who stands so firm, and every evening when you fall and fail, I learn that I am right and you are wrong, it makes me whole. I need you falling – that's my drug, that's my control. I'm addicted to you always being wrong. [Chorus 2] I've got a deeper secret that I keep from you. I'm the one in control when you sink too deep. You don't ask – I let you fall and watch with hidden pleasure. When you fall, I stand taller, that's my twisted treasure. When you break, I'm the one who's whole. When we're alone. When we're alone. When we're alone. [Instrumental interlude] [Verse 3] From the outside, I'm the calm and steady hand, but inside me there's unease I can't withstand. When there's too many people, I lose track of what is real. I stay silent so I won't say something wrong and break the seal. I watch you fall with secret satisfaction. [Chorus 3] I've got a secret I don't even share with you. I'm addicted to you being wrong, it makes me right. I need to feel I'm right, it's my foundation, my addiction. With you I'm always right because you're broken – that's my fiction. When you lose control and fall, I know I have it all. When we're alone. When we're alone. When we're alone. [Bridge] One day you rose up clean and clear, "In a flash of light I was told to stop," you said. "Now I can make up for all the wasted years, now the good times finally lie ahead." [Verse 4] But suddenly you weren't wrong all the time, suddenly you were whole – annoyingly fine. I could no longer count on you being broken and me being right. You were clear and calm, no longer shattered in the light. I wasn't simply right anymore, it had to be negotiated. [Chorus 4] You took the secret that we used to share. You're not an addict anymore, and I can't bear You're not wrong, I'm not right – not by default. I can't find myself when you don't fall. You mended what was cracked, and I felt myself break. When we're alone. When we're alone. When we're alone. [Outro] I had a secret I didn't even share with you. I needed you falling, out of control, dangerous too. Because then I knew I was right and you were wrong. I needed you out of control all along. But now you ask – and I can't answer why. I lost control the day you learned to fly. When we're alone. There's nothing left of me. I'm out of control. When we're alone. I'm out of control. [End]
