Hush - Hellyeah

You pray for quiet

Inside you head the screams won’t silence

I remember those days

The terror past our home;

the fear that’s in your bones

It just won’t go away, no

The strangle holds, the insulting names

The world of shit around his fist;

the nose to nose beer stinking breath

Thrown down onto the floor, so battered, bruised and sore

Choke down on the truth of it, and touch it until you break your neck

Hell’s where I was born!

Hell’s where I was raised

This hell is where I’m from and this hell is where I’ll stay

The hush is all I need, to hush the misery;

The hush that belongs to me, like the hush inside of dreams

Just be still and praaay, and let the noise just fade away

Retain to violence

Atop your heart like a secret closet

So no one can penetrate

You just can’t stand the touch;

affection weighs too much

You push everyone away from

The reckoning!

The bitter stings

Whipped so bad I pissed myself;

still with a beating stub held belt

If this reminds you of home, you better know you’re not alone

Hold the gun up to my head, I’ll pull the trigger on myself!

Hell’s where I was born!

Hell’s where I was raised

This hell is where I’m from and this hell is where I’ll stay

The hush is all I need, to hush the misery

The hush that belongs to me, like the hush inside of dreams

Just be still and pray

These are the memories.

In me

You didn’t want to know!

You didn’t want to know!

These are the memories we keep

We don’t want to show!

We don’t want to show!

By no you need to know, you’re not alone

Hush is all I need, hush the misery

Hush belongs to me, like the hush inside of dreams

Hell’s where I was born!

Hell’s where I was raised

This hell is where I’m from and this hell is where I’ll stay

The hush is all I need, to hush the misery

The hush that belongs to me, like the hush inside of dreams

Just be still and pray and let the noise just fade away
