Hide & Seek

My mom knows I smoke cigarettes
And I bet that she ain't happy about it
Someday soon I'll quit
I've learned to hide all my tattoos
It started out as just a few
Little pictures that I drew
What do I have to lose
I'm so use to playing a game
Hide and seek but the seeker never came

You say you search but you can't find me
How can you see when you look so blindly
Time after time
Again and again
What is real when we're all pretend

A hundred thousand times
I looked you in the eyes
To see if you really cared
But you were never there
A hundred thousand miles
I escape for a while
A breath of highway air
Over the sea somewhere

Hey dad do you have regrets
You've spent your time playing life's roulette
Addictions that you never quit
So I learned to grow up way too fast
To keep the peace because it won't last
Now I cry about my past
Why did I have to lose
I'm so use to playing a game
Hide and seek but the seeker never came

You say you search but you can't find me
How can you see when you look so blindly
Time after time
Again and again
What is real when we're all pretend

A hundred thousand times
I looked you in the eyes
To see if you really cared
But you were never there
A hundred thousand miles
I escape for a while
A breath of highway air
Over the sea somewhere

The seeker never came
