Hideaway

Set the table, all our friends are eating alone

Drop your fingers, take a breath, and swallow it whole

Are there lips in your ears that are driving you mad?

Do they hold you like a marionette?

Is there more to life than a morning smoke?

Well, I guess I haven't found it yet

I saw you, did you see me?

I saw your reflection, and it's putting me at ease

I've been there before, in the belly of the whale

I swam up for air before I fell underneath

Bow and let the crowd applaud you

Masquerading on a full moon

Now the curtains have closed, that's the end of the show

Swooned by your ulterior motives

Oh, and there she goes, off to find a hideaway

Feel your pockets for the last of your needles and pins

Roam the hallways, racing thoughts and tireless limbs

Are you tired of the mess, that collects in your nest?

Is your head spinning off of the tracks?

And you're blowing your horn 'cause you've run out of steam

Why'd you ever think that they had your back?

I saw you, did you see me?

I saw you praying in the dark on your knees

Glass on the floor, glass in my feet

Blood on the carpet, seeping into the concrete

Bow and let the crowd applaud you

Masquerading on a full moon

Now the curtains have closed, that's the end of the show

Swooned by your ulterior motives

Oh, and there she goes, off again to hideaway
