Bear’s Den – Blue Hours Lyrics

 

Blue Hours  Lyrics by Bear’s Den

 

Sometimes I wonder if I’ll ever reach you
Or if now you’re just gone for good
If I’ll ever see you smile again
It’s on a wing and a prayer
Babe but I will be there
Letting you know I care
If I could just break through the glass
If it shatters in my hands
Then it shatters in my hands
It’s a risk I’m willing to take
Baby, I’m about to break because
I can’t go on, I can’t go on, I can’t go on, I can’t
Keep pretending that I’m okay
Watching you slip away

Why’d you have to go there?
Why do you lie?
Why d’you answer in questions whenever I ask you why?
Don’t act like you’re so hard to find
I know where you hide
I know where you hide
Why won’t you just stay with me?
Why do you lie?
Why’s there always something keeping you up at night?
Don’t act like you’re so hard to find
I know where you hide
I know where you hide
In the blue hours

I wish that I could crawl inside of your head
Stumble ’round, see what I can find
Which of your synapses deceive?
And seem to tie you in knots
Tangled in all you forgot
And all you cannot see
Is the person who’s standing there
Right in front of me
If you could only see yourself for a second, it could change
And no, I can’t go on, I can’t go on, I can’t go on, I can’t
Keep pretending that I’m okay
Watching you slip away
Trying to hold these two truths in my head
Both the darkness and the light
Please don’t expect them to play nice

Why’d you have to go there?
Why do you lie?
Why d’you answer in questions whenever I ask you why?
Don’t act like you’re so hard to find
I know where you hide
I know where you hide
Why won’t you just stay with me?
Why do you lie?
Why’s there always something keeping you up at night?
Don’t act like you’re so hard to find
I know where you hide
I know where you hide

Why’d you have to go there?
Why do you lie?
Why d’you answer in questions whenever I ask you why?
Don’t act like you’ve got nothing to hide
I know where you hide
I know where you hide
Why won’t you just stay with me?
Why do you lie?
Why’s there always something keeping you up at night?
Don’t act like you’re so hard to find
I know where you hide
I know where you hide
In the blue hours
