About nobody likes a secret

"nobody likes a secret" recounts a confrontation with insecurity-fuelled toxic masculinity that impacted a past romance in which a partner disguised his loving connection by bragging to others about the exaggerated sexual extent of their relationship. Unsurprisingly, penning this ordeal was not a simple choice, particularly when laid bare against a stripped acoustic instrumental. “For me, that song was really hard to write. I wrote it a year after the break-up, very much as a reflection,” Lizzy explains. .

nobody likes a secret Lyrics

[00:00.93] I hold my anger in my stomach
[00:06.69] And I'm starting to have side effects
[00:10.06] From hating you this much
[00:16.66] No explanation, just a quote in a magazine
[00:23.41] Where you said you only dated me for fun
[00:31.28] And I'm paraphrasing now
[00:35.07] But the gist of it was how you never loved me
[00:41.49] Only in it for the sex
[00:47.01] And I really don't get how
[00:50.60] You can say that and be proud of it
[00:55.32] We both know you were in deeper than that
[01:03.49] Hmm
[01:08.56] Nobody likes a secret
[01:16.62] And I was always yours
[01:25.03] It's almost been a year and even so
[01:32.75] I still don't know what for
[01:38.70] Hmm
[01:43.51]
