Having formed less than 1 year ago, SECRETS have already made an impact as one of the most promising up and coming acts in the scene. Armed with irresistibly catchy choruses, soaring vocals, and mercilessly dynamic breakdowns, SECRETS is preparing to tour heavily in support of the new release this fall.
Velocity Records’ Dave Shapiro says, "When I heard these songs, I knew San Diego had yet another band that would be at the forefront of their genre." Rise Records’ founder Craig Ericson is equally pumped on the signing, explaining, "Dave showed me the band and I immediately knew these guys were keepers.”

Fragile Figures
Secrets Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause every sweet word that I write could never fix their hearts
I can't help but think
That someone else is living my dream
Because this means so much to me
Am I the man that you want
Or the man that I'm supposed to be?
Am I the man I'm supposed to be
Or did they get the whole thing wrong?
These days I wish I never wrote a single song
For you to sing along
I'm just so scared to find I'm wrong
'Cause I've chased these dreams for way too long
I let the hate of the world fill my head with doubt
I wont let their voices drown me out
You are the reason, I do this for you not myself
Am I the man I'm supposed to be
Or did they get the whole thing wrong?
These days I wish I never wrote a single song
For you to sing along
I'm just so scared to find I'm wrong
'Cause I've chased these dreams for way too long
When you want me to fail
And stand in my way
I'll use your hate to fuel my rage
The song Fragile Figures by Secrets explores the anxiety and self-doubt that come with pursuing a career in the music industry. The lyrics suggest that the artist is struggling to reconcile his own vision for his art with the expectations of his fans and maybe even other people in the industry. The opening lines of the song paint a picture of the artist feeling deeply insecure about his ability to write music that will truly resonate with his audience. The second verse delves into the artist's inner conflict, as he wonders whether he is truly pursuing music for himself or for others. He expresses a fear of failing and the concern that he may have lost sight of his original intentions.
The chorus of the song is especially poignant, as the artist grapples with the reality of pursuing his dreams. He wonders whether he is living up to his own expectations and those of his fans. This is a common theme in many works of art, as artists often go through periods of self-doubt and insecurity despite their success. The third verse seems to address the artist's critics head-on, as he acknowledges that there are those who would like to see him fail. He resolves to use this negativity as fuel to drive him forward, rather than allowing it to defeat him.
Overall, Secrets does an excellent job of conveying the emotions and struggles that come with being an artist. The song Fragile Figures is a testament to the power of music and the importance of staying true to oneself.

Lately I've been thinking that I'm not the one to play this part
Recently, I have been contemplating if I am the right person for this role.
'Cause every sweet word that I write could never fix their hearts
Although I write heartfelt lyrics, they do not have the power to mend broken hearts.
I can't help but think
That someone else is living my dream
Because this means so much to me
Am I the man that you want
Or the man that I'm supposed to be?
I cannot shake off the feeling that somebody else is living my dream. It holds a great deal of meaning for me. Should I be the man that you desire or the man that society expects me to be?
Am I the man I'm supposed to be
Or did they get the whole thing wrong?
These days I wish I never wrote a single song
For you to sing along
I'm just so scared to find I'm wrong
'Cause I've chased these dreams for way too long
Have I been true to myself or did I misunderstand everything about who I am supposed to be? I regret penning songs for you to sing along, afraid that I may be mistaken. After chasing my dreams for so long, it's frightening to think that they may be for nothing.
I let the hate of the world fill my head with doubt
I wont let their voices drown me out
The world's animosity had filled me with insecurity, but I refuse to let it silence me.
You are the reason, I do this for you not myself
My motivation to continue is because of you, not for my own selfish gain.
When you want me to fail
And stand in my way
I'll use your hate to fuel my rage
When opponents want me to falter and obstruct my progress, I will use their negativity to drive my passion even more.
