Lyrics: A good man tried to shoot me towards the premier league of life But somehow I got deflected Lord, I ended up in strife Now I've cried ten thousand tears, over what seems like such wasted years But I'll cry for you no more my friend (I) swear sometimes I've lost the plot, over every fool who tried to hurt me My arms ache, my feet get tired, I wanna lay right on down I wasn't born to let time pass me by, I know I'll get there if I try And I'll cry for you no more my friend again Ten thousand tears Ten thousand tears Ten thousand tears Ten thousand tears Ten thousand tears Ten thousand tears Ten thousand tears Ten thousand tears Ten thousand tears Ten thousand tears Ten thousand tears Ten thousand tears

I Can't Hide 03:24
Lyrics: I’ve been screening my brain for the meaning in this life Some folks ride you, they’ll classify you in their mind I just want to be alone but I can’t hide from myself I’ve been scheming, been misdemeaning, don’t know why All those days, I’ve been miles away from a reply I just want to be alone but I can’t hide from myself I can’t hide from myself Tried and tried But I can’t hide from myself I’ve been running from dawn to dusk I’m hiding, can’t get no rest I hear voices from right behind me, they shout and cry I just want to be alone but I can’t hide from myself I can’t hide from myself Tried and tried But I can’t hide from myself
