• Game of Hide and Seek

  The frown on his face crimps his forehead, and his heavy steps crack the deck
  He grunts as he makes an announcement, as he keeps my high hopes in check

  The door slammed hard behind him, as he storms at me and goes inside
  To change the odds he will hear me, I must wait until the time is right

  In this game of hide and seek
  I need patience to give relief
  In this game of hide and seek
  I can’t do anything but breathe

  At night when it’s time to close the day, his demons come back out in spades
  I hold my hand on his back as if to say, take a long deep breath to dim the aches

  In this game of hide and seek
  I need patience to give relief
  In this game of hide and seek
  I can’t do anything but breathe

  This kid is really caught in a cloud of gloom, with talk about the end of life
  I pause and say how much I love him, I will never stop, he is my child

  In this game of hide and seek
  I need patience to give relief
  In this game of hide and seek
  I can’t do anything but breathe

  In this game of hide and seek
  I need patience to give relief
  In this game of hide and seek
  I can’t do anything but breathe

  In this game of hide and seek
  I can’t do anything but breathe
  In this game of hide and seek
  I can’t do anything but breathe

  Game of hide and seek
  Game of hide and seek
  Game of hide and seek
