Lyrics
Hide Your Eyes
Tear in the eye, as the words turn against you
As you realize the words are true
Do you laugh or cry, do you live or die
It?s too late to change the past
You?ve lost what was so valuable
If you take things for grated and they disappear
Perhaps they weren?t meant to be
Chorus: Something went wrong, it?s so hard to let go
But it?s the only way
Run if you can, turn a blind eye
Turn your face and hide what?s inside
Run if you can, turn a blind eye
Turn your face and hide your eyes
I do still care, but I can?t understand why
A bond that began so strange, but became so strong
Do you tear away and avoid the pain
Do you stay and hope it will change
Either way you can?t win
If you take things for grated and they disappear
Perhaps they weren?t meant to be
Chorus
