Mesh - The Place You Hide

I could never fall for you But the tension makes the air so blue I would never have the time To watch you every day and night but, Maybe if I let myself Come down from this dusty shelf You're messing with my head again Got me seeing red again, so Take me to the place you hide Where the truth belongs outside Tell me all I need to hear All you want and all you fear Take me to the place you love Where we fit like heavens glove Take the pictures off the wall And make me feel there's nothing more Though I couldn't ask of you, Something I could never do Thought I couldn't ever need Someone that would make me plead so Wish that I could pace myself Instead I could erase myself A conscience in a big glass jar I never thought I'd get this far, so Take me to the place you hide Where the truth belongs outside Tell me all I need to hear All you want and all you fear Take me to the place you love Where we fit like heavens glove Take the pictures off the wall And make me feel there's nothing more Do you regret the times you've prayed? It's not the things you took But the things that you've thrown away Still, I knew it all Take me to the place you hide Where the truth belongs outside Tell me all I need to hear All you want and all you fear Take me to the place you love Where we fit like heavens glove Take the pictures off the wall And make me feel there's nothing more Friends Like These I've fallen in love with a photograph A moment of youth that I can't get back The days when you're here it returns again Emotions that feed on me everyday And every night I watch it fading It's safer just to write my whole life down With every breath the words betray me It's easier to face the truth I've taken a vow that I'll make it up I'll dig in the past and I'll rake it up Making amends to the friends I miss Breaking the mould that I'm frozen in And everyday I know I'm lazy It's easier to let the good times pass And now it seems the memory's hazy It's time for me to face the past We tell them lies, we do sometimes We live and die for friends like these When all is said, we turn instead And give our lives for what's beneath And we do sometimes I'd be a fool to slide again I'll be like you and try again I've fallen in love with a photograph A moment of proof that can't love me back The way that it cuts at me everyday The images mock me a melt away And everyday I feel it clearly It's easy just to save the worst until last And maybe I could see it really It's painful what we do We tell them lies, we do sometimes We live and die for friends like these When all is said, we turn instead And give our lives for what's beneath And we do sometimes We live and die for friends like these And we do sometimes
