You have a secret that you’ve kept too long,
I want to hear the truth the whispers hold,
It’s the dark rhythm of an ancient song.
Lie still, let our bodies know they belong,
While a hungry, heavy story unfolds,
You have a secret that you’ve kept too long.
Don’t feel shame, love can do no wrong,
Let the notes play out, the sounds they behold,
It’s the dark rhythm of an ancient song.
With a firm grip on your hands strong,
Together our truth grows fierce and bold,
You have a secret that you’ve kept too long.
The friction of our pressed skin creates a throng,
And our silence is no longer controlled,
It’s the dark rhythm of an ancient song.
With your breath against my throat, and our voices a gong,
Comes a shatter of silence, the secret unrolled,
You have a secret that you’ve kept too long,
It’s the dark rhythm of an ancient song.
