Open Secrets — 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 -- Open 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...

I find no absolution In my rational point of view Maybe some things are instinctive But there's one thing you could do You could try to understand me -- I could try to understand you...
