Hide & Seek

Scratches and cracks she's got
Send her to the repair shop
Fix her up
Show her love
It's not that simple
Warranty won't cover this darling
You've got baggage so heavy
Might need to take a seat
This is years in the making
Of trying hard to please
Perfect is a disease

I know that you'd rather pretend
That you're ignorant
To all these problems
But
A plaster doesn't heal a wound
Concealer doesn't hide a bruise
Problems show through

So you hide and seek your problems
But you always seem to lose
It's funny how you believe
That this time it might work for you
You hide and seek your problems
Coz you don't know what to do
It's easier to pretend that
There's nothing wrong with you

Prescription filled, check box
Try not to spill intrusive thoughts
You'll scare the children
But we're still just children
I don't wanna grow up
Coz the world is pretty fucked/messed up
And I'd rather just not

I know that you'd rather pretend
That you're ignorant
To all these problems
But
A plaster doesn't heal a wound
Concealer doesn't hide a bruise
Problems show through

So you hide and seek your problems
But you always seem to lose
It's funny how you believe
That this time it might work for you
You hide and seek your problems
Coz you don't know what to do
It's easier to pretend that
There's nothing wrong with you

It's a little hard to face the truth
When it's making life
So difficult for you
Hide n seeks a game
It will end
So let yourself
Mend
