Hide Your Tears |
| I don’t spend too many days |
| Thinking about my reckless ways |
| Broken hearts, rhymes of death |
| Trouble I’ve brought, pain I’ve left |
| All the changes I try to make |
| Like drowning bubbles in a giant wake |
| Coughed from the sea onto dry land |
| Brought to life somehow again |
| Hide your tears out in plain sight |
| Hide your tears to catch the light |
| Show your tears to all your friends |
| Then go and hide your tears again |
| Heard her cries through bedroom doors |
| Crashing dreams off distant shores |
| Said everything I shouldn’t say |
| Would different matter anyway |
| The stories I could never tell |
| Of lives and wives and city bells |
| They’re all wrapped in my arms so dear |
| Though nothing I have can hold them here |
| Hide your tears out in plain sight |
| Hide your tears to catch the light |
| Show your tears to all your friends |
| Then go and hide your tears again |
| I still fall for it every time |
| Take the cure on my own dime |
| Get up, get knocked down again |
| I ask for five and you give me ten |
| I broke into the house of love |
| A dimming light my shadow held |
| 'Til shadows held no light to see |
| With all of it surrounding me |
| Hide your tears out in plain sight |
| Hide your tears to catch the light |
| Show your tears to all your friends |
| Then go and hide your tears again |
| I don’t spend too many days |
| Thinking about the reckless ways |
| A man tries to outrun his death |
| Or a broken heart runs out of breath |
