Secrets Not On Display

[Intro] [clean electric guitar arpeggios, light percussion] [Verse 1] [acoustic guitar enters, palm-muted electric guitar] A silent stage With actors in shadows of spite Lurking with fear and hate The manifested spider's bite Waiting to weaponize the songs they write Plans in private whispers to initiate While the ones who watch question who is right [Chorus] [distorted electric guitar power chords, full drum kit] Sometimes things seem to slip out anyway Those hidden things that are unintended Showing without realizing what we say Even while holding back everything People are noticing it in other ways Other ways that reveal secrets not on display [Instrumental Break] [clean electric guitar melody, steady drum beat] [Verse 2] [bass guitar and drums continue, clean guitar arpeggios] Hidden emotions get stronger each day Quietly evolving from a connection made Eventually something will dramatically change For better or worse [Bridge] [guitar solo with light delay, driving bassline] Truth is the blade that ends a war Where love is the blame Only one will walk away Feeling the same [Chorus] [full band intensity, layered vocal harmonies] Sometimes things seem to slip out anyway Those hidden things that are unintended Showing without realizing what we say Even while holding back everything People are noticing it in other ways Other ways that reveal secrets not on display [Outro] [clean electric guitar arpeggios, drums fade out] [acoustic guitar strumming ends]
