If beauty is skin deep,
the secrets that you keep
show all your pains
like the blue of your veins.

Salt tears to the ocean.
You hide your emotion.
He's already gone,
let him fade with the dawn.

These secrets and lies
haven't been very wise,
you broke everyone's hearts
trying to keep them apart.

The things you avoid,
see all that they destroyed.
Ruined life with your death,
took the air from his breath.
