BURNING AND HIDING

 

Running, hiding

When you gonna come back round

Out on the edge of the wall, flying

Boy, when you gonna come back down

 

One more drink and I’ll go

Out on the dance floor

No wait, no make it one more

One more song and I’m in

No wait, no play it again

Again

 

Burning, hiding

Wanting for to find you a queen

But you’re all brooding, moody and silent

Swimming in that sea of green

 

Sisters all crowding the floor

Shaking like they don’t know who’s watching

Like they don’t care what for

Show to me sister your all

I know I’ll get it together

Just make it one more

One more

 

Soaking, sliding

Out to see what you can get

Slurring, blurry and drip-drying

And lit up like a wet cigarette

 

Seems to me you lost it

When you got it in your mind to roll on

To go on, to go out there and get it

What you already had

And, oh I’m sure you’re getting by

When you found a good high

And you throw it all away for higher

And higher yet

 

Burning, hiding

When you gonna come back round

Out on the edge of the world flying

Boy, when you gonna come back down

 

Girls all crowding that floor

Shaking like they don’t know who’s watching

Like they don’t care, like they don’t care what for

Show to me sister your soul

I know I’ll get it together

Just make it one more

One more

 

Burning and hiding

When you gonna come back down
