lyrics

Presumptuous and ludicrous, hypocrisy each day
Releasing in the ether, returning anyway
Exposing, juxtaposing, though naked’s not my style
Retire in the dire, breathing fire all the while

And when you see too much,
Then I’m stepping on the clutch (reaching for the crutch)

Lamenting and tormenting, there’s never time to waste
I write with one eye on the page, the other keeping faith
Creating, excavating, I work into a cage
And any acts of loving kindness, quench the need to rage

I hide behind the word
Do you ever see me being heard?
Absurd to think it’s true
I’m hiding from you, too
I hide behind the word
You get too close, then like a bird
Take flight to open space
Back to my hiding place

I'm becoming, can't you see?
But for now, I decide to hide behind me
