Hugz

A hug is just another way of hiding your face A hug is just another way of hiding your face To look you in the eyes is like a spray full of mace A hug is just another way of hiding your face A hug is just another way of hiding your face, yeah Don't wanna see myself I don't wanna see myself Don't wanna see myself I just wanna conceal myself Don't wanna see myself Don't wanna see myself Just wanna conceal myself No, don't wanna A joke is just another way of telling the truth A joke is just another way of telling the truth I know you're suspicious, but you got no proof A joke is just another way of telling the truth A joke is just another way of telling the truth, yeah Don't wanna be myself I don't wanna be myself Don't wanna be myself I just wanna redeem myself Don't wanna be myself I don't wanna be myself I just wanna redeem myself No, don't wanna Don't wanna (hugz) Don't think so (hugz) Don't wanna (hugz) Don't think so (hugz) Don't wanna (hugz) Don't think so (hugz) Don't wanna (hugz) Don't think so (hugz) A hug is just another way of hiding your face A hug is just another way of hiding your face To look you in the eye is like a spray full of mace A hug is just another way of hiding your face, yeah I don't wanna see myself Don't wanna see myself Don't wanna see myself I just wanna conceal myself Don't wanna see myself Don't wanna see myself Just wanna conceal myself No, don't wanna Don't think so Don't wanna Don't think so A hug is just another way of hiding your face A hug is just another way of hiding your face
