House in the Woods lyrics

I know a secret, do you?

[Verse 1]
Left a couple pieces out the puzzle
I still got the picture, my n*gga
You gotta keep a couple puzzle pieces with ya
Melting snow swell the river
Tippy toe when they come get ya
The moon's swole, big and cold
Ship her off a sip of white liquor
Fresh driven snow walk the perimeter
The sky limitless, I’m at the precipice
I was in the balcony at sentencing
Them devils asked for everything
Your lawyer won the house
The rest, the judge settled it
Courthouse steps, I'm doing big math with my head
Them demons devilish
Bitter medicine
Sealed evidence
Learn to forget, I'm a rogue elephant
I’m blank as a baby in town, I'm a pleasant but cagey
Nobody presses out here, people mind they business
My mind wanders at time
I get to thinking how much life I lived while you did it
Fell in and out of love
Won and lost all ten times over while you sat in that prison
[Chorus]
House in the woods so when you find me we got privacy
Hide-and-seek, hide-and-seek, hide-and-seek, hide-and-seek
House in the woods so when you find me we got privacy
Hide-and-seek, hide-and-seek, hide-and-seek, hide-and-seek

[Verse 2]
It's too cold to snow
Smoke out the chimney
Rolled the bone
Lit it off the stove
Stood on the porch, eyes half-closed
Against the wind
The horizon flat, white
House in the woods clear cut to the property line
Ain't nobody dropping by
Private property
Beware the dog
The driveways' steeper incline
At the top, the house a monolith
A sniper's perch, a Crip
The dog stopped chasing the stick and sniffed the air, whining
I'm straining to hear something in the silence
No published address but the letters keep arriving
Folded neatly in the mailbox or under the door, sliding
[Chorus]
House in the woods so when you find me we got privacy
Hide-and-seek, hide-and-seek, hide-and-seek, hide-and-seek
House in the woods so when you find me we got privacy
Hide-and-seek, hide-and-seek, hide-and-seek, hide-and-seek
House in the woods so when you find me we got privacy
Hide-and-seek, hide-and-seek, hide-and-seek, hide-and-seek
