lyrics

If walls could murmur secrets
I’d make them cave in
At night I’m lying sleepless
He whispers what’s within
The rise and fall of your chest
Forehead covered in sweat
I can’t connect
What’s in your head?
I can’t rest
You haven’t told me yet
You haven’t told me

Let me see behind your lonely walls
I will love you, I will love it all
Your eyes tell more than you can keep
Beside me talking in your sleep
Won’t you grant me entry to though this door
You don’t have to lock it anymore
How many secrets can you keep?
Beside me talking in your sleep

Baby what’s got your tongue?
If I’m the only one why hold back?
Why can’t I set you free from whatever tragedy dwells inside your precious heart?
No more smoke and mirrors baby
Don’t you run from me
Don’t hide it don’t fight it

When darkness clouds your days
You hide all away
Rain or shine I still need you here

Let me see behind your lonely walls
I will love you, I will love it all
Your eyes tell more than you can keep
Beside me talking in your sleep
Won’t you grant me entry to though this door
You don’t have to lock it anymore
How many secrets can you keep?
Beside me talking in your sleep

If you’re feeling like escaping
We could run to the sea
Leave this world behind so you can breathe!
And if you’re hating what’s in the mirror
Just turn and look at me
There something out there better for us baby

Don’t say ‘I’m sorry’
Just say something true
I’m light years away
Lying next to you

We all have secrets baby
We all know shame
Feel those things we shouldn’t
We’re all the same

I want it all

vocals, Excuse continue to rock the foundations of the Melbourne music scene.
2022 saw the release of their fierce and fast single 'Not Here for You' - an answer to
the homophobia and bigotry experienced by members of the band. ... more
