The Dodos – Don't try and hide it lyrics

What were you thinking?
Writing on the rooftop
Waiting for something
Or maybe someone

And you were laughing
Circling the roadblock
You couldn't run off
To keep your heart locked

Don't try and hide it
It's all your left with
You will need more
Than gaining affection

Don't try and fight it
What you've been offering
Doesn't even
Match up what you're born with

If this is the last of your kind, well
Don't be blind and leave it to others
If this is the last of your kind, well
Don't be blind and leave it to others

Don't memorize all of your locations
You are nowhere, you are nothing vacant.
Don't give your eyes to others' vocations
They are there to keep you in your station.

(X2)
Don't try and hide it
Don't try and fight it
Don't try and hide it
Don't try and hide it fight it

And why the hell were you putting your faith in
Something you could not, someone you looked to

And now you watch it always floating over
What you would long for, what you were born to

Don't memorize all of your locations
You are nowhere, you are nothing vacant.
Don't give your eyes to others' vocations
They will only keep you in your station.

(X4)
Don't try and hide it
Don't try and fight it
Don't try and hide it
Don't try and hide it fight it
