I′ve been told, told, told to tell the truth

But it would hurt, hurt, hurt you if I do

And a lie, lie, lie would keep it sweetBut it would steal, steal, steal me of my sleep

If I tell you, then I'll be the bad guy

I can see you slamming that door

If I shed a little light on my dark side

No way you′d love me anymore

I could swear it on my bones

She didn't mean nothing to me at all

And this much I know

And that much you'll never believe

The weight of a stone I will carry

The ghost of a girl I will bury

If I want to keep you

I′ll have to keep my secret too

Oh, a dark, dark, dark and dirty road

Pulled me down, down, down to wild unknown

That could burn, burn, burn any man

Make him shake, shake, shake the devil′s hand

If I tell you, then I'll be the bad guy

I can see you slamming that door

If I shed a little light on my dark side

No way you′d love me anymore

I could swear it on my bones

She didn't mean nothing to me at all

And this much I know

And that much you′ll never believe

The weight of a stone I will carry

The ghost of a girl I will bury

If I want to keep you

I'll have to keep my secret too

All my secret

I′ll have to keep my secret too

All my secret

I'll have to keep my secret too

I can swear it on my bones

That she didn't mean nothing to me at all

And this much I know

And that much you′ll never believe

The weight of a stone I will carry (I will carry you)

The ghost of a girl I will bury (I will bury)

If I want to keep you

I′ll have to keep my secret!
