I Hide It Well

from The Blackest of Dogs by Chris Harris

/

lyrics

Bright and sunny disposition
Won't admit that something's wrong
Always take the same position:
There's no problem, move along

Gonna keep it sweet and light
Might be down, but you'd never tell
Hold the darkness out of sight
I've learned to hide it well

On the outside: blithe and blissful
On the inside: screaming
Inner voice is dark and dismal
Hard to keep on dreaming

Gonna keep it sweet and light
Might be down, but you'd never tell
Hold the darkness out of sight
I've learned to hide it well

Got to keep things ticking over
Got to keep it real
Never, ever own up to the way things make me feel

Blundering from day to day
Always feeling ill
Try to keep the blues away
Through sheer force of will

Gonna keep it sweet and light
Might be down, but you'd never tell
Hold the darkness out of sight
I've learned to hide it well

about

Chris Harris Bristol, UK

I'm still trying to get the music I record to sound like the version I can hear in my head. To do this I've ended up playing every instrument I can get my hands on. These days, I'm closer to "That Sound" than I used to be, but the journey continues.
