about

The world's a crazy place. Lot's going on out there.

lyrics

Come now little ones, don't go playing in the trees
There's not a sign but there's not a sign but they'll say it's not for you and me
There's too many stories and too many drawers
Some say to tear it all down some say it's not that time or place anymore
All this information isn't knowledge but distraction
People standing in their corners just afraid of any action
All the vistas are opaque it should bring you to your knees
But that's no longer a problem when people have forgotten how to believe

Oh pretty baby
What about the day
Gotta hideway
Hideaway

It's hard to understand how to find a position
Try to make it on the side and you find your way to prison
Every single day people told to walk away
If you open your mouth you're told you've got nothing to say
Selling your house, your ex-wife's on the phone
You can't move slow enough to get your past to leave you alone
People taking falls that they can't explain
Everything's getting done but nothing ever does change

Oh pretty baby
What about the day
Gotta hideaway
Hideaway
Hideaway

I've been walking too long but my feet won't give up
I keep trying to find the path of truth faith and love
I'm just trying to get a meal, I'm just trying to get high
But ahead or behind have never been my kind of lies
It's just luck when they say you're gonna make it in this town
Sometimes nothing's happening, sometimes you're turning everything down
I've been here before, I'll be back in the end
I'll have nothing to say when it all comes to an end

Oh pretty baby
What about the day
Gotta hideaway
Hideaway
Hideaway
Hideaway
