hide

hide me from the shadows.

hide me from the light.

 

keep me from the windows

keep me out of sight.

 

tell the lies and say i'm rich.

tell the lies and say i pray.

 

never tell her that i'm his *****

never tell her that i'm gay.

 

tell my momma not to cry.

her baby will be back.

 

never say he wants to die

that all he wants is smack.
