  • You made this harder than it had to be
    The absolute martyr, etching into me
    You flashed your colors at me way prematurely
    And now I know what you're up to, and it feels so good
    It's right

    We've got your number written
    Reset the system, screaming
    Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
    Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
    These sitting ducks in season
    The march of little children
    Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
    Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now

    The truth will cut you down to pieces
    One eighty four, let's burn it down
    And if I can't keep from living with this regret
    I'll need to change the way I think about us

    I listened to them chuckle as they eat
    Their judgment hiding behind eyes and dirty teeth
    You think I care for all the phony pleasantries
    When I want nothing to do with
    I want nothing to do with your life

    We've got your number written
    Reset the system, screaming
    Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
    Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
    These sitting ducks in season
    The march of little children
    Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
    Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now

    The truth will cut you down to pieces
    One eighty four, let's burn it down
    And if I can't keep from living with this regret
    I'll need to change the way I think about us

    Bye, bye, bye
    Bye, bye, bye

    Baby, I'm bad company
    And you don't have a mark
    You're the prettiest thing I've ever seen
    Come with me, I want to make you dirty

    One eighty four, let's burn it down
    I'll need to change the way I think

    Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
    Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
    Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
    Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now

    Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
    Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
    Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
    Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
    (Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now)

    Heart rate, 119 bpm

    And neurovascular compromise
    Sirius, you are not well
