Lyrics Todd Rundgren

Todd Rundgren

Weakness

I don't keep a lot of secrets

But the ones I do will die with me

It's not because I'm hiding something

A trusted friend I try to be

But when every adversary lies in wait to test me

My world they would undo

And they'd break me down to nothing if they only knew

That you are my weakness, my weakness

You're my Achilles' Heel

The flame that melts the steel in my heart

I don't pretend to be objective

I will always come down on your side

But every time I see or hear or smell you

My bias grows more hard to hide

And when the truth must be protected

I find myself distracted

My duty I abuse

And in the battle's clamor

The flaw within my armor

Might shake the secret loose

There's no ties

As far as anybody knows, no surprise

As far as anybody knows, you and I

As far as anybody knows, have no ties

And as far as they know, my will is bulletproof

And I'd be no good to no one

If they knew the truth

That you are my weakness, my weakness

You are my Kryptonite

The sun that shines a light on my soul
