Lyrics
Hide
by Anna Fritz
You.
You led me to believe that you,
you wear your heart on your sleeve but you,
you’re only brave sometimes and you
can be so purposely blind and that’s nothing,
nothing I can count on.
I.
I love being alone and I,
I’ve made a home of my own, but I,
I still need to be seen and I,
I don’t know where you’ve been and that’s nothing,
nothing I can count on.
You.
You’re like Jekyll and Hyde and I,
I don’t know which one’s the disguise cause you,
can be generous and warm and you
can leave me out in a storm and that’s nothing,
nothing I can count on.
I.
I know you are trying but sometimes
it feels like you’re lying but I will,
I’ll keep loving you imperfectly if you will
keep speaking your truth to me and that’s something,
something we can count on.
