Yo La Tengo - All Your Secrets lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

All of the thoughts we thought would stay unsaid

Have made their way here instead, before the riot

As the days ahead become behind

Replace the tape as we rewind, before the riot

(Chorus)

Tell me all ur secrets

Say it slowly and clear so u don't have to speak twice

And if there's things that I'm afraid to know

I should have learned them years ago, before the riot

(Verse 2)

I don't believe we're hopeless as we fear

Or as good as we appear, before the riot

I could be strong inside ur sleepin' eyes

Unafraid of truth, unafraid of lies, before the riot

(Chorus)

Think of what we're missin'

Well take that thought and put it out of ur head

And if we can stop a restless night

Won't give up without a fight, before the riot

I can feel the time is comin', sure it's comin' soon

Do what we do, hidin' out from view

Sure it's comin', say the worst should happen

Would we plan for that, even if we could?

And if we can stop a restless night

Won't give up without a fight, before the riot

Here it comes, before the riot
