Hide and Seek Lyrics by Alicia Olatuja

Intuition: Songs from the Minds of Women

2019

[Verse 1]
Where are we?
What the hell is going on?
The dust has only just begun to fall
Crop circles in the carpet, sinking, feeling
[Verse 2]
Spin me 'round again and rub my eyes
This can't be happening
When busy streets amass with people
Who stop to hold their heads heavy
[Chorus]
Hide and seek
Trains and sewing machines
All those years
They were here first
[Verse 3]
Oily marks appear on walls
Where pleasure moments hung before
The takeover, the sweeping insensitivity
Of this still life
[Chorus]
Hide and seek
Trains and sewing machines
(Oh, you won't catch me around here)
Blood, blood and tears
They were here first
[Bridge]
Mmm, whatcha say?
Mmm, that you only meant well?
Of course you did
Mmm, what you say?
Mmm, that it's all for the best?
Of course it is
Mmm, what you say?
Mmm, that it's just what we need
You decided this?
Mmm, what you say?
Mmm, what did she say?
[Outro]
Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth
Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut-outs
Speak no feelings, no, I don't believe you
You don't care a bit, no, you don't care a bit
Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth (Hide and seek)
Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut-outs
Speak, no feeling, no, I don't believe you (Hide and seek)
You don't care a bit, no, you don't care a bit
Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth (Hide and seek)
Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut-outs
Speak, no feeling, no, I don't believe you (Hide and seek)
You don't care a bit, no, you don't care a bit
Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth (Hide and seek)
Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut-outs
Speak, no feeling, no, I don't believe you (Hide and seek)
You don't care a bit, no, you don't care a bit
Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth (Hide and seek)
Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut-outs
Speak, no feeling, no, I don't believe you (Hide and seek)
You don't care a bit, no, you don't care a bit
Hide and seek
