lyrics

Underground

i worked it all out
i had my act down good
i reel ya in easy
make ya feel understood
then i throw ya a curve ball
i throw you a line
but ya get too close
ya get too close

inside i am nuthin
i am empty n blank
i rip off confession
jes like robbing a bank
but here's what's happened
here's what I learned
i'm in hiding from everyone
i'm in hiding from everyone

my heart's goin underground
in this modern world, in the modern city
i wear a smile, but im feelin down
in this modern world, in the modern city

i take a bus
t th' end of the country
i leave all my friends behind
i say goodbye
i tell em i love em
but i don't give a damn
i don't give a god damn

C

i fool my family
i fool myself
fool my best friend
put em thru hell
the whiskey, the beer
the whip i use
buries me deeper
worse than abused

can i dig myself out
can i find my way home?

C

i'm hidin' from everyone...
