Hide And Seek


She calls me late at night
Says she doesn't want to fight
So I turn out the lights
We'll talk a little while

I haven't seen her smile
Secure in her denial
So she wants to leave in style
Oh she wants to run and hide

I'm always playing hide and seek
I really think that I'm too weak
From the words I'll never dare to speak
So maybe I'll concede
Oh maybe I'll concede

Her voice is in my brain
And it's driving me insane
Like the splatter from the rain
But it's always coming down

And I still play the clown
In her tears I'll sink and drown
What's lost cannot be found
We're nailed into the ground

I'm always playing hide and seek
I really think that I'm too weak
From the words I'll never dare to speak
So maybe I'll concede
Oh maybe I'll concede

But the memories all repeat, oh the memories all recede
They're the things I can't receive, but they're always haunting me
And if consequence is key, there'll be justice when I sleep
There'll be justice when I weep, so move along with what you see

I'm always playing hide and seek
I really think that I'm too weak
From the words I'll never dare to speak
It's all for show and make believe

We're always playing hide and seek
I don't know where we'll stop to meet
I count to ten and it repeats
So maybe I'll concede
Oh maybe I'll concede
I think it's time to finally let this be
