Ugly Things

What's in the corner
under the rug
first you pushed-
then you started to shove?

whatcha hidin'
up your
sleeve
I've seen some ugly things

Take a seat
pull up a chair
don't mind the light
watch the glare
time for a little q & a
let's start with your full name.

Ugly things running round in
the back of your mind
Ugly things
in a closet
skeletons
are fine
Come on baby, your safe with me
I've seen some ugly things.

Where's the line
between bad and good?
the one you'd cross if you knew you could
don't look away I'm not through
some blood letting
might do you good.

What you do and what you say
don't seem to correspond today
it's black and white
not the shades of gray
no one's looking when
we turn away.

chorus

Watch your back
it's dog eat dog
pass the buck
it's someone else's fault
point your finger
say your prayers
toll the bell
someone else is dead.

No one lifted a finger
no one made a sound
no one heard you baby
when you hit the ground
Come over here
you're safe now
I've seen some ugly things.
