The Cover Up

by The Cab

Its not about the crime but the cover-up. So Ill keep the covers up to my neck with my eyes shut. Its all I have left to save. And I painted the most beautiful picture on the back of my eyelids just in case I miss her enough. I will close them and I will see.
Im sweating bullets. I never thought that I could pull this wool over your eyes. Cause you and I both know that we werent ones for this disguise. Keep the lights down low. Dont show your fear. They wont hear. Well is it worth this? Well tell me what do you do when theres nothing left?

Dont try to catch me. Dont try to find me. You know Im always hiding. You wont see me, better listen for my breathing. Dont try to catch me. Dont try to find me. You know Im always hiding better listen for the beating of the heart we know we both share. Dont be scared. You know thats my job. Well tell me what do you when theres nothing there?

Its always something but its never what we wanted cause theres nothing more deceiving than the lives were leaving. Nothing worse than seeing all the faith you put in.
