Badlees - Don’t Let Me Hide lyrics

(alexander)

The big man ain't so big no more

He's curled up on the basement floor

His worldly goods around his feet

He's lost his mind trying to keep

The more you gainthe more you pray

Nobody comes to take it all away

But you're up there and I'm down here

With just the stairs between our fears

And walls made of foolish pride

Don't let me hide

Once I walked a troubled road

Crusading for a ransom owed

But any source of real joy contains

An initiation of pain

The more you buildthe more you stay

Behind to tend what you have made

But you're up there and I'm down here

With just the stairs between our tears

And walls we can't see behind

Don't let me hide

The more you livethe more you're sure

Some things are worth losing for

But you're up there and I'm down here

With just the stairs between our fears

And walls we can live inside

Don't let me hide
