From the recording Co-Conspirators
Lyrics
Co-Conspirator
By Ted Horrell
The world’s a pretty funny place to me
I showed you what I meant, and you did not agree
You said, “Dark thoughts should stay inside where they belong”
I showed you mine, and you thought they were wrong
You wish I wouldn’t share those kinds of things
But they’re a part of me even when it stings
I need a co-conspirator
Someone to share my hopes and dreams
I want a co-conspirator
Who knows exactly what I mean
You never really say what’s on your mind
Like you don’t want me to know that you’ve got a darker side
I feel misunderstood when I’m with you
You think that I’m strange. Well, I think you’re strange too.
I need a co-conspirator
Someone to share my hopes and dreams
I want a co-conspirator
Who knows exactly what I mean
Maybe I’m wrong to live so secretively
But I just need someone to share my secrets with me
I’ve done some things that bother me today
The only difference with you is you would never say
Maybe I’m wrong to live so secretively
But I just need someone to share my secrets with me.
I feel misunderstood when I’m with you
You think that I’m strange. Well, I think you’re strange too
