Hot Lies
Unveiling Forbidden Desires: Hank Midnight's Hot Lies
Lyrics
I got a wrong mind to keep you satisfied
I am considering the option of satisfying you, even if it goes against my natural inclinations.
In golden light on a weekday afternoon
Describing a romantic or idealized moment bathed in warm light on a regular weekday afternoon.
When he comes home I'll sneak out the back porch
Planning to discreetly leave when the partner comes home, possibly to engage in clandestine activities.
What are we doing? Hot lies and sex and ceremony...
Raising a question about the nature of the relationship involving deceit, passion, and formalities.
When I get home
Returning home and engaging in routine activities.
I watch the television
Spending time watching television upon returning home.
There is nothing new
Expressing a sense of monotony and lack of excitement in the content on TV.
Why don't he look at you?
Questioning why the partner doesn't receive attention from their significant other.
He don't look at you!
Emphasizing that the partner is being ignored.
I feel I've overstayed my welcome once again
Feeling like an unwelcome guest and acknowledging a lack of clarity about where home truly is.
It's not my home, in fact I'm not sure where home is for me
Acknowledging a sense of displacement and uncertainty about one's true home.
If not warm in your arms, I can't say with certainty
Expressing that only in the warmth of the partner's embrace can certainty be felt.
I surrender all control of what's to be (repeat)
Repeated surrender of control over the future.
When I get home
Returning home again and resuming routine activities, possibly with a sense of resignation.
I watch the television
Engaging in television watching, highlighting a lack of novelty.
There is nothing new
Expressing a sense of repetition and lack of excitement in the TV content.
Why don't he look at you?
Reiterating the partner's lack of attention.
He don't look at you!
Emphasizing the continued lack of attention from the significant other.
