Tried to hide (02-22-66) Songtext
von 13th Floor Elevators

You think you′re strong when you're all restraining
You think you have when you′re only claiming
When I got near all I saw was fear
And I know that you tried to hide and you cried 'cause you lied about it


You knew that you had when you tried to tell it
You thought that you were when you tried to sell it
And when I got near all I saw was fear
And I know that you tried to hide and you cried 'cause you lied about it

You used the words but you′re only guessing
And you know I saw it was your brand new dressing
Well, you know the song, but you live it all wrong
And I know that you tried to hide and you cried ′cause you lied about it
