I Got A Secret was one of the very first riffs that shaped the direction of this record- raw, angry, unapologetic guitar- as soon as the music was finished and I began writing vocals I knew I wanted a call and response with someone that could push me and immediately called Shawna Potter from War On...
[Verse 1: Jim Ward & Shawna Potter]
You got a secret
I should've known
I found the reason
You're all alone
I forgive
Yeah you can too
Beat back bleed out cut through
[Chorus: Jim Ward & Shawna Potter]
And I woke up this morning
With all your weight tied to my neck
And you're dragging me down
Dragging me down
Dragging me down
Dragging me down
[Verse 2: Jim Ward & Shawna Potter]
I got a secret
You should know
Got your fingerprints on it
You can't go
You confess
Someplace new
Beat back bleed out cut through
[Chorus: Jim Ward & Shawna Potter]
And I woke up this morning
With all your weight tied to my neck
And you're dragging me down
Dragging me down
Dragging me down
Dragging me down
[Refrain: Shawna Potter & Jim Ward]
Where can lead the way out
Where can lеad the way out
At the bottom I see somewhеre I can go (Where can lead the way out)
From the darkness of the seeds I'll never know (Where can lead the way out)
At the bottom I see somewhere I can go (Where can lead the way out)
From the topic of the seeds I'll never know (Where can lead the way out)
[Bridge: Jim Ward & Shawna Potter]
They're gonna know (Know)
They're gonna know (Know)
They're gonna know (Know)
They're gonna know (Know)
[Chorus: Jim Ward & Shawna Potter]
And I woke up this morning
With all your weight tied to my neck
And you're dragging me down
Dragging me down
Dragging me down
Dragging me down
