  • Got a secret
    Can you keep it?
    Swear, this one you'll save
    Better lock it in your pocket
    Takin' this one to the grave
    If I show you, then I know you
    Won't tell what I said
    'Cause two can keep a secret
    If one of them is dead

    Why do you smile
    Like you've been told a secret
    Now you're tellin' lies
    'Cause you have sworn to keep it
    But no one keeps a secret
    No one keeps a secret
    Why when we do our darkest deeds
    Do we tell?
    They burn in our brains
    Become a living hell
    'Cause everybody tells
    Everyone tells

    Got a secret
    Can you keep it?
    Swear, this one you'll save
    Better lock it in your pocket
    Takin' this one to the grave
    If I show you, then I know you
    Won't tell what I said
    'Cause two can keep a secret
    If one of them is dead

    Look into my eyes
    Now you're getting sleepy
    Are you hypnotized
    By secrets that you're keeping?
    I know what you're keeping
    I know what you're keeping

    Got a secret
    Can you keep it?
    Swear, this one you'll save
    Better lock it in your pocket
    Takin' this one to the grave
    If I show you, then I know you
    Won't tell what I said
    'Cause two can keep a secret
    If one of them is dead

    "Allison?"
    "Yes, Catherine"
    "I have something I want to tell you, but
    You have to promise to never tell anyone"
    "I promise"
    "Do you swear on your life?"
    "I swear on my life"

    You swore you'd never tell
    You swore you'd never tell
    You swore you'd never tell
    You swore you'd never tell

    Got a secret
    Can you keep it?
    Swear, this one you'll save
    Better lock it in your pocket
    Takin' this one to the grave
    If I show you, then I know you
    Won't tell what I said
    'Cause two can keep a secret
    If one of them is dead

    Got a secret
    Can you keep it?
    Swear, this one you'll save
    Better lock it in your pocket
    Takin' this one to the grave
    If I show you, then I know you
    Won't tell what I said
    'Cause two can keep a secret
    If one of them is dead

    Got a secret
    Can you keep it?
    Swear, this one you'll save
    Better lock it in your pocket
    Takin' this one to the grave
    If I show you, then I know you
    Won't tell what I said
    'Cause two can keep a secret
    If one of them is dead

    Yes, two can keep a secret
    If one of them is dead
    Yes, two can keep a secret
    If one of us is dead Writer/s: Allison Margaret Pierce, Catherine Eleanor Pierce
