Open Secrets Lyrics - Hold Your Fire - Rush

It went right by me 

At the time it went over my head 

I was looking out the window 

I should have looked 

At your face instead. 

It went right by me 

Just another wall 

There should have been a moment 

When we let our barriers fall 

I never meant what you're thinking 

That is not what I meant at all.

Well I guess we all have these feelings 

We can't leave unreconciled 

Some of them burned on our ceilings 

Some of them learned as a child 

The things that we're concealing 

Will never let us grow 

Time will do its healing, You've got to let it go. 

Closed for my protection 

Opened to your scorn 

Between these two directions 

My heart is sometimes torn. 

I lie awake with my secrets 

Spinning around my head 

Something that somehow escaped me 

Something you shouldn't have said 

I was looking out the window 

I should have looked at your face instead.

Well I guess we all have these feelings 

We can't leave unreconciled 

Some of them burned on our ceilings 

Some of them learned as a child 

The things that we're concealing 

Will never let us grow 

Time will do its healing, You've got to let it go. 

I find no absolution 

In my rational point of view 

Maybe somethings are instinctive 

But there's one thing you could do 

You could try to understand me 

I could try to understand you.
