[Verse 1: FINNEAS]
Easy telling someone how to feel
Not as fun to tell someone you love that it's real
The house your daddy built is underwater
No use trying not to be your mother's daughter
[Chorus: Ashe & FINNEAS]
Everybody knows that you're my weakness
You're an open secret I'm afraid
Every time I walk by Times Square Jesus
He tells me to confess before my grave
But I don't wanna be saved
[Verse 2: Ashe, Ashe & FINNEAS, FINNEAS]
She's everything that I've ever wanted
To be because she's yours
And I'm no threat, of course
I still pick up your mother from the airport
She says I should move on
You're (I'm) too much your (My) father's son
[Chorus: Ashe & FINNEAS]
Everybody knows that you're my weakness
You're an open secret I'm afraid
Every time I walk by Times Square Jesus
He tells me to confess before my grave
But I don't wanna be saved
[Post-Chorus: Ashe & FINNEAS]
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
[Bridge: FINNEAS, Ashe, Ashe & FINNEAS]
Books you never read fill up your shelf
Nothing that you've said has ever helped
Using me to talk about yourself
You come off mean, but I know you mean well
[Chorus: Ashe & FINNEAS]
Everybody knows that you're my weakness
You're an open secret I'm afraid
Every time I walk by Times Square Jesus
He tells me to confess before my grave

In Times Square and Hollywood, you have Jesus, the Naked Cowboy, Elmo, or whoever else you walk by and pay your respects to. Even if you don’t live a religious life, you’re still confronted by religion. When you are, you can’t help but think about your own life, regrets, desires, or baggage. If the...
I remember getting just [the melody of the chorus]. I walked out for coffee, and I walked in and [FINNEAS] had those chords and [the melody], and there’s a video clip of me saying, “Did you just write that when I walked out of the room?”, ‘cause I don’t think I’d been gone for more than a minute! It...
The day that we demoed that one out was David [Marinelli] on acoustic, Rat (Ricky Gourmet) on electric, and me on a third. It felt cool but had kind of a missing dynamic range or something… not much low, not much high. So, when we went to record it, I put David really up high on a bass. This song ha...
