Lyrics
Hide Away
Just because your eyes are closed
It doesn't mean you're invisible
It means you can't see where you're going
But you know it's inevitable
If you bury your head in the sand
It doesn't mean that you're not seen
Someone may pass by without you knowing
While you're lost in your daydreams
You can't hide forever from this big cold world
No matter how much you think you could
Sooner or later a light will sneak in
And the cold dash of reality intrudes
You can stick your fingers in your ear
And try hard not to listen
But its guaranteed that something you will hear
Will remind you of what you're missing
You can't hide forever from this big cold world
No matter how much you think you could
Sooner or later a light will sneak in
And the cold dash of reality intrudes
You might turn your back on all your friends
And hide away from the maddening crowd
You may think you'd be better off in the end
But sooner or later you'll want them around
Break
You can't hide away forever from this big cold world
No matter how much you think you could
Sooner or later a light will sneak in
And a cold dash of reality intrudes
