[Verse 1] Everyone tells me everything I don't know why Maybe the still face Maybe the eyes that don't flinch I'm the vault The confession booth The woman you call at 3AM When you've done something you can't undo I hold your face in my hands And I listen And I never tell I never tell I have 200 secrets in my chest Lined up like bottles in a cellar Each one someone else's darkness That I keep warm with my silence [Pre-Chorus] Tell me, tell me, tell me I'll keep it, I'll keep it Tell me, tell me, tell me I'm the vault [Chorus] I'm the one who knows everything And the one who says nothing Everyone's darkness fits inside me Like I was built for storage Tell me your worst thing, baby I'll hold it like it's mine I'll hold it like it's mine And that's the closest I get To feeling my own [Verse 2] Tuesday a man told me he cheated Wednesday a woman confessed she stayed Friday someone said the unforgivable I held every face the same way Hands soft Eyes wet on cue I'm so good at this They think I'm kind They think I'm kind I'm not kind I'm starving Your darkness is the only meal That keeps me from tasting mine [Bridge] Here's the secret about the vault The vault has a secret too And nobody asks Because everyone's too busy Emptying their pockets into her hands To notice she's carrying something of her own Something she's never told anyone Because nobody's thought to ask The keeper Who's never kept [Outro] Empty room Finally alone I say it out loud One sentence Just one And the room doesn't flinch And nobody's here To hold my face And nobody's here To hold my face I'm the vault And I'm full And nobody knows
