About the Artist
Lyrics
Keep the curtains drawn all day The mirror is a trap that fails Saw a portrait of myself Made a promise to be kept Yes, the procession is long But the time is very short Leave the traces far behind For the future ones to find Love's in hiding, hate displayed Keep the curtains drawn all day The mirror is a trap that saves Or a debt that makes you pay See you hiding in plain sight And I wanna be in love With the man I used to be In a decade I felt free And as I walk the soft parade See you standing in the rain Yes, I knew this thing would end I did not know where or when As I walk, the soft parade Will you please take me back To the beach where I once ran? With my toes dipped in the sand Love's in hiding, hate displayed Keep the curtains drawn all day The mirror is a trap that saves Or a debt that makes you pay See you hiding in plain sight And I wanna be in love With the man I used to be In a decade I felt free Love's in hiding, hate displayed Keep the curtains drawn all day Love's in hiding, hate displayed Keep the curtains drawn all day Love's in hiding, hate displayed Keep the curtains drawn all day Love's in hiding, hate displayed Keep the curtains drawn all day
