[Verse 1: Dave Gahan]
When I look at you
I'm probably the same way too
I got a feeling that it's coming soon
Could this be the end?
And when I look around this room
It must be something I can do
Can I convince you that it isn't true?
We've come to the end
[Pre-Chorus: Dave Gahan]
Oh did I disappoint you?
I wanted to believe it's true
Oh the book of love
Was not enough to see us through
[Chorus 1: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
The problem should've been you (Should've been you)
Should've been you (Should've been you)
Should've been you (Could've been you)
Should've been you
If it hadn't been me
(Could've been you, could've been you)
Should've been you (Should've been you)
Should've been you (Could've been you)
Should've been you
If it hadn't been me
[Interlude]
[Verse 2: Dave Gahan]
It seems so obvious to you
You're feeling what I'm feeling too
The final chapter in the contract expires soon
We've come to the end
Thank God I'm not the same as you
You always know exactly what to do
Is who I am, is not for you
We've come to the end
[Pre-Chorus: Dave Gahan]
Oh did I disappoint you?
I wanted to believe it's true
Oh the book of love
Was not enough to see us through
[Chorus 2: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
The problem should've been you
(Should've been you)
Should've been you
(Could've been you)
Should've been you
(Would've been you, should've been you)
If it hadn't been me
(Would've been you, could've been you)
Should've been you
(Should've been you)
Should've been you
(Would've been you, should've been you)
If it hadn't been me
(Could've been you, should've been you, could've been you)
Would've been you
(Would've been you)
Should've been you
(Could've been you, should've been you, could've been you)
If it hadn't been me
(Would've been you, could've been you, would've been you)
If it hadn't been me
(Would've been you, would've been you, should've been you)
If it hadn't been me
(Should've been you, could've been you, should've been you)
If it hadn't been me
(Could've been you, could've been you, could've been you)
If it hadn't been me

Secret To The End was produced by Ben Hillier.
Depeche Mode released Secret To The End on Fri Mar 22 2013.
According to Songfacts, Dave Gahan once said to Q magazine:
Every verse ending with ‘Is this the end? Should this be the end?’ It was seeing myself for the first time. The wondering ‘why, why, why? What’s it all about?’ I’m going to do something useful with it, try to be the best father and husband...
