Hiding
Hiding
There’s another part of me
That feels the insecurities
I try not to show it
I try not to blow it
I try so hard now
The best way that I know how
I try not to know it
I try not to show it
I’m hiding the real me
And I don’t want you to see
That I’m hiding all the pain inside
But I no longer want to cry
I’m pretending to be
Someone who isn’t me
I’m hiding
Yeah, I’m hiding
I don’t want you to see
What’s really inside of me
I try not to tell you
I know I don’t have to
Did I give it away
Was it something I wanted to say
Do you know what I’m thinking
I feel like I’m sinking
I’m hiding the real me
And I don’t want you to see
That I’m hiding all the pain inside
But I no longer want cry
I’m pretending to be
Someone who isn’t me
I’m hiding
Oh, I’m hiding
When you look into my eyes
You’re seeing someone filled with lies
When you look at me
That may be all you see
I’m hiding the real me
And I don’t want you to see
That I’m hiding all the pain inside
But I no longer want to cry
I’m pretending to be
Someone who isn’t me
I’m hiding
Yeah I’m hiding
