No More Secrets
Carolina Liar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A million miles you could say I've been around
I played my part I been living like a clown
There were days that I could hardly say my name
So many times I swore that I would change my ways
Had a vision but it never took it's place
So don't you tell me what to do, oh no
No don't you tell me what to say, oh no
Chorus:
'Cause I've been wrong so many times
It feels like home but I've burned it to the ground
No more secrets
I tell you that I cannot hide
An open book with nothing left between the lines
No more secrets
Chorus:
'Cause I've been wrong so many times
It feels like home but I've burned it to the ground
No more secrets
Oh baby I tell you, I tell you that I cannot hide
An open book with nothing left between the lines
No more secrets
Bridge:
I'm coming down
I've played my part
Yeah, I'm coming down
Chorus:
'Cause I've been wrong so many times
It feels like home but I've burned it to the ground
No more secrets
'Cause I've been wrong so many times
It feels like home but I've burned it to the ground
No more secrets
I tell you that I cannot hide
An open book with nothing left between the lines
No more secrets
Carolina Liar's song "No More Secrets" talks about the singer's past mistakes and his desire to turn over a new leaf. In the first verse, the singer confesses to having lived his life recklessly, but now he's ready to make amends. However, he feels incompetent compared to other men and doesn't want anyone to tell him what to do. The chorus, which is repeated three times throughout the song, emphasizes the singer's realization of his mistakes, acknowledging he's made errors and doesn't want to keep them a secret anymore. The lines "It feels like home, but I've burned it to the ground" signifies how the singer's mistakes have destroyed something that felt familiar, like home.
In the bridge, the singer continues to express his willingness to start anew. He says he's coming down and has played his part, indicating that he has acknowledged his role in making mistakes and is ready to move forward. Ultimately, the song is about accepting past mistakes, seeking forgiveness, and committing to living truthfully and transparently.
