Open Secrets — текст песни (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...
