Andrew Maysilles - And Then The Hurricane lyrics

The hurricane is coming now The overwhelming crowd will pull me under And it was obvious... Places everyone We don't want them To know what we've been up to Zip your lips and attach a smile You've been faking since always I am the promises you never kept The face you wear when you're upset Love the guilty conscience So take off all the makeup you've been made up in I can't believe they always believed I never caught on to any of it The hurricane is coming now They overwhelming crowd will pull me under It's obvious that you are stronger now And I pray someone will help us out But we can't win We can't win Ever again, ever again Because everybody, everybody will sell you out... Everybody, everybody will give an applause To their outstanding performance But behind the curtains when they remove their masks I believe a standing ovation is a little too much for this fabrication Our voices have been drowned out Appearance turned inside out Our voices have been drowned out Your only safe haven is your show Which is slowly burning out Your safe haven is your show Which is slowly burning out Where are your friends now? Places everyone We can't have them finding out what we've known all along This trip is false and everyone's on to it Please, please don't ask how I know It must have been the cover you blew a long time ago...Oh Well it's so obvious Finally I've figured you out Everybody, everybody will sell you out Everybody, everybody will sell you out My only concern is myself
