Hide Those Feelings

(Album: House Party - 2023)

I'm amazed
You can see past the lines on my face
I believe
That the cards at my chest are the ones that you left at your feet
And if I play
I will show the whole world just how fake I can be

And I laugh
When I'm scared of the past
And I'm so self assured
Though I've been mostly wrong before

Let's hide those feelings
Let's get concealing
I'll wear my self around like I'm ok
I wanna get paid to be someone else

I'm a mess
Of a man with no bones in his past
I'm afraid
If you're looking for perfect we're gonna be worse for the frame
Don't you fret
My self doubt keeps me warm in my bed

And I'll hide what I must
Bury hands in the dust
I'm a mess, ain't that fine
I'm aware of my failures but don't need to wear them like signs

Let's hide those feelings
I'm not done healing
I'll wear my self around like I'm ok
Every damn day
I wanna be saved
I wanna get paid
To be someone else
