Lyrics
Cho: I was needin' it without knowing it
Spending my time feeling it without showing it
Shame on me
I was givin' but not trying to get what I need
I wasn't livin' - I was dyin'
(1&2) I just couldn't see it
(3) Now the sun shines on me
V1: I was going through the motions
Keeping my options open
I was fakin' it - totally makin' it up
It hurt too much to feel
To let myself reveal
I'd become totally numb
Till somewhere along the way it come up to me
The past I couldn't face came to light
What I learned that day
Is the price I paid for hiding
Was just too high
Cho 2:
V2: When I think of all the years
I spent trying' to stem my tears
I wonder why I couldn't cry
Pain is so personal - so irreversible
So very, very scary
But once the walls came down and I no longer fought
The healing started and the hiding stopped
Now I feel so much lighter
The sun is shining brighter
I'm free - free to be me
