letra de place to hide - j dugs

verse 1
looking at that family, it was the perfect home
a loving wife, 2 beautiful kids, heir to his throne
secure job, 50k a year, happiness and trips to rome
all go swimmingly ‘til he was chucked in at the deep end though
boss at work pleaded and needed him to do extra work
at first it was fine, then the problems came in and they began to lurk
to make sure deadlines met, still up at 4am, he quenches his first
with a bottle of jack, the only thing keeping him up is this 30 perc
at first it was only one, didn’t seem a big deal, eventually it got worse
got worse, one night he collapsed asleep, woke up, morning, feeling the worst
boss told him he failed again, he’ll find another job, soon a clerk
so he’s up the next night, to make sure he kept going, drops a second perc
and quickly 2 became 3, 3 to 4, 4 to 5, these pills began to flirt
his behaviour became erratic; he had knocked himself up off his perch
cracked out, ‘posed he developed a habit, cause he just dropped two pills at work
and at this point he had lost himself and no patrol was on the search
hook
tell me what’s been happening, what’s been on your mind
lately you’ve been searching for a darker place
to hide, that’s alright
but if you carry on abusing, you’ll be robbed from us
i refuse to lose another friend to drugs
just come home, don’t let go

verse 2
28 hours in a row he’s been awake now, he’s struggling to concentrate now
work are getting annoyed, the deadlines met but he makes mistakes now
other day put a glass to tony’s throat, he’s been put on break now
at home all day, only thing to get by some percs he’ll take now
but this is where it gets twisted, though this is no beautiful fantasy
his brain’s all mashed up now, in fact he’s bordering insanity
the other day, he heard his daughter using a profanity
the vanity of his actions, can’t describe it, it was brutality
left his daughters face black and blue, blacker than a cavity
his wife had took the kids and moved away, moot inhumanity
he took one looked at himself and he knew he needed to be clean, knew he needed rehab
3 months clean, the kids are back, but that’s when he would relapse
no déjà vu, up at 3am, it was the same song and dance
this would be the last straw; his wife was not to give a chance
struggling with the finance, kids had left and now there’s no romance

hook
tell me what’s been happening, what’s been on your mind
lately you’ve been searching for a darker place
to hide, that’s alright
but if you carry on abusing, you’ll be robbed from us
i refuse to lose another friend to drugs
just come home, don’t let go
verse 3
recalling the fear on the face of his kids when he balled a fist
the horror, despair, the face of his wife – at the end of his
life, one night before bed, he made a c-cktail, percs, ambien and meds for pain, it was not no
happy c-cktail, no party vibe, it was deadly this was no purple rain
woke up, eyes kept blacking out, room spinning, walls blooded
roof blooded, fell out of bed, got up, walked, stumbled, thudded
couldn’t walk straight, blood out his eyes as if the room was flooded
he managed to get to the bathroom, collapsed on the floor, he had deducted
this was it, as he fought to keep his eyes open, he simply couldn’t
as the room still saturated red, but slowly getting dimmer and dimmer
he realised this could be it, couldn’t move, he knew he’d been a sinner
his eyes opened again, ears don’t work, see’s his daughters crying
he couldn’t believe, 34 years on this planet for nothing, health declining
there’s no point learning from you mistakes when it’s already far too late
this is no cinderella, no happy ending and he had to accept his fate
