The 13th Floor Elevators — Tried To Hide lyrics

Lyrics

You think you’re strong when you’re only straining
You think you have when you’re only claiming
When I got near
All I saw was fear
And I know that you tried to hide
And you cried 'cause you lied about it You knew what you had when you tried to tell it You thought that you were and you tried to sell it And when I got near
All I saw was fear
And I know that you tried to hide
And you cried 'cause you lied about it Woah yeah
You used the words but you’re only guessing
And you know I saw it was your window dressing
Well, you know the song
But you live it all wrong
And I know that you tried to hide
And you cried 'cause you lied about it I know you tried to hide
I know you tried to hide
Tried to hide
Tried to hide
Tried to hide
