You don't have any secrets when you come into the world 
You're open like a book and the pages get filled 
The leaves keep turning and on every single page 
They write their story with the marks on you face 
Marks on your face 

Locked in your head an unbreakable code 
A secret never spoken is a story never told 
Gonna show you the back of my nhand they say 
You can hide those scars but they hurt you every day 
They hurt you every day 
They hurt you every day 

Chorus 
What was written on the back of his hand 
You once said it out loud you won't say it again 
What was written on the back of his hand 
You once said it out loud you won't say it again 
What was written on the back of his hand 
You won't say it again 

Water is holy when it falls from the sky 
Water tastes bitter when it falls from your eyes 
Lay down on the ground and look up at the sky 
There's no rhyme or reason when you're watching time fly 
Watching time fly 

When the stars come out the night is alive 
Connect those stars with the lines of your life 
With the lines on your hand with the words that you write 
One true word's gonna beat a pack of lies 
Beat a pack of lies 
Beat a pack of lies 

Chorus 

One true word's gonna beat a pack of lies 
One true word's gonna beat a pack of lies 
Beat a pack of lies 

Chorus
