Matt Nathanson - Somewhere To Hide lyrics

She said come along with me
I've got offerings for you my
Sweet, sweet boy
She promised warmth too, but I knew better
Her words broke hot against my neck
And tasting the sweet
Sweet numb of regret on my lips
I filled my pockets and closed the door
And I tasted all I'd left behind
But shameful I crawled naked
Searching for somewhere to hide
And in the end she said
It was memorable and comfortable
But funny, I wouldn't have used those words
The secrecy and her bed
It was choking me with a knot in my gut
You have beautiful empty eyes
I'm sure of that much
Oh princess open your eyes
And close your mouth
Else all that spite you swallow willingly


It just might fall out
And I've seen you smile wide
I've seen you at your best
And it left me feeling
Sick inside and unimpressed
And I tasted all I'd left behind
But shameful I crawled naked
Searching for somewhere to hide
