Lyrics
I try to quiet my tell-tale heart
But that isn’t the way she likes to play
She sends the message to my skin
Makes my eyes to turn me in
And by the time I find the nerve to say it
You already know
You already know
I can keep somebody else’s secrets
I hold up under pressure and time
But when I think about the way I feel for you
It all bleeds through
And before I go confessing to this crime
You already know
You already know
I don’t have the curse of conversation
You don’t need the words to understand
Nothing gets lost in translation
Just your hands
I’ll give it to my tell-tale heart
She’s a rebel, she’s a tyrant, she’s a concrete wall
No matter what I want to do
She’s gonna spell it out for you
What’s the use
You already know
You already know
