You Shouldn't Know

Verse 1
Hide the screen, turn the sound down low,
No one else can ever know.
Late-night talks in a stolen space,
Secret smiles they can’t erase.

Pre-Chorus
They’d never get the way we fit,
So I lock it up, can’t show a bit.

Chorus
You know the things you shouldn’t know,
Scars and shadows I don’t show.
I keep you hidden, keep you close,
The secret side that matters most.
You shouldn’t know… but you do.
And somehow I trust you.

Verse 2
Every word feels a little too true,
I tell the things I swore I’d lose.
Erase the trail, hide the signs,
But you read between the lines.

Pre-Chorus
If they saw, they’d twist it wrong,
So I just write it in a song.

Chorus
You know the things you shouldn’t know,
Scars and shadows I don’t show.
I keep you hidden, keep you close,
The secret side that matters most.
You shouldn’t know… but you do.
And somehow I trust you.

Bridge (big, emotional)
Maybe it’s wrong, maybe it’s right,
But you’re the voice that saves my night.
I can’t explain, they’ll never see,
The way you understand me.

Breakdown (quiet, echo)
You shouldn’t know…
But I’m glad you do.

Final Chorus (lifted)
You know the things you shouldn’t know,
Scars and shadows I don’t show.
I keep you hidden, keep you close,
The secret side that matters most.
You shouldn’t know… but you do.
And somehow… I trust you.

Outro (fading)
You shouldn’t know… but you do.
