You swore to secrecy
You declared that you would tell no-one
Especially not her
The one I said that needed never to hear of it
You tell her of my secrets
And come apologizing
Come begging my forgiveness
Thinking that you have done wrong
And telling me of your sorrow
But there is one flaw to your flaw
One slight misreading of the situation
That you must have simply overlooked
Simply not realised because you trusted me
Trusted me as if I truly trusted you
I trust no-one in this life
And this is why
I knew you'd tell her
Why do you think I told you?
I wanted her to know
But i could never have been the one
The one to break the bad news
That would be vile of me
So I told you and made you swear not to tell her
And you fell for the trap I hoped you would
So ask yourself who really is guilty?
