Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've got a secret I've been keeping
It's been eating me alive
Been manipulated into thinking
That the fault was mostly mine
[PreChorus]
(Ooh, ooh)
All the hell you put me through
(Ooh, ooh)
I'm about to raise some too
[Chorus]
There ain't no telling where I come from
That ain't what you do (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
But hiding skeletons just ain't in my bones
I gotta tell the truth (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Will they believe me or just call me crazy
When I tell 'em you're the villain?
There ain't no telling
But I'm still telling on you (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
[Verse 2]
Uh, lay my reputation on the line
'Cause I ain't lying anymore
And I ain't about to apologize
For being too afraid before (Ah)
[PreChorus]
(Ooh, ooh)
Protecting you, protecting us
(Ooh, ooh)
I really thought that's what love was
[Chorus]
'Cause there ain't no telling where I come from
That ain't what you do (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
But hiding skeletons just ain't in my bones
I gotta tell the truth (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Will they believe me or just call me crazy
When I tell 'em you're the villain?
There ain't no telling
But I'm still telling on you
[PostChorus]
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Oh (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
[Bridge]
Well, it might come back to bite
But I just can't sleep at night
Knowing there's a chance you might
Do to her what you did to me
I ain't tryna drag your name
If I could save her the pain
But then it's worth the price I'll pay
If the truth will set her free
[Chorus]
There ain't no telling where I come from
That ain't what you do (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
But hiding skeletons just ain't in my bones
I gotta tell the truth (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Yeah, will they believe me or just call me crazy
When I tell 'em you're the villain? (Tell 'em)
There ain't no telling
But I'm telling on you (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
