Name: Hiding To Nothing
Duration: P00H02M52S
Description: Okay, so maybe I shouldn't have been sleeping with his wife while he was at work. Maybe I shouldn't have been eating his food and drinking all his booze. Maybe I shouldn't have accepted expensive gifts that she paid for on his credit card. But nobody's perfect. We all give in to temptation now and again. So was that any excuse for him to break my f***ing legs and put me in hospital for six weeks?

lyrics

This situation that I find I’m in
You know it’s impossible, I just can’t win
I’m on a hiding to nothing
A hiding to nothing
I’ll tell you for nothing
I know there’s something going on

Your way of thinking’s driving me insane
Always the loser, I’ve got nothing to gain
I’m on a hiding to nothing
A hiding to nothing
I’ll tell you for nothing
I know there’s something going on

It drives me crazy, that’s for sure
I just can’t take it anymore
I can’t go on like I’ve done before
Wasting my time with you

I’m tired of having to take your point of view
I’m never first in line, it’s always you
I’m on a hiding to nothing
A hiding to nothing
I’ll tell you for nothing
I know there’s something going on
