Better left unseen
Better left unsaid
Bruised knees and ripped jeans
Signs of what's ahead
Stitched back together
Fraying at the seams
Regret a reminder
With scars like these
It all starts and ends
With a secret handshake
We can just be friends
Without the feeling
Make it all pretend
Without the meaning
Go through the motions
Without the heartbreak
It all starts and ends
With a secret handshake
Looking for someone
Someone with empty eyes
We are the ones
Who speak in honest lies
We look a little meaner
We talk a little leaner
So play along
Pretend we're believers
It all starts and ends
With a secret handshake
We can just be friends
Without the feeling
Make it all pretend
Without the meaning
Go through the motions
Without the heartbreak
It all starts and ends
With a secret handshake
We both needed the game
Needed the feel of your hand in mine
Palms touch pulses race
Fingers intertwine
Endless beginnings
Living out of time
We both needed the game
Needed the feel of your hand in mine
It all starts and ends
With a secret handshake
We can just be friends
Without the feeling
Make it all pretend
Without the meaning
Go through the motions
Without the heartbreak
It all starts and ends
With a secret handshake
It all starts and ends
With a secret handshake
It all starts and ends
With a secret handshake
