lyrics

So you think you can hide
From the feeling inside
Can you keep it all down
If you just don’t allow
All these thoughts to come out
They’re not real anyhow
And if nobody knows, you just roll with the blows
That’s the way that it goes

The way your mind moves around
You won’t let your guard down
You’ll be safe from this one
No you won’t come undone
So you think you can fight
With the voices inside
And nobody knows, but your fear it just shows
That’s the way that it goes

Is it time to decide
Or face the battle within
Can you open your doors
And let someone else in
Are you going to survive
Will you push them away
All your fear or your hope
Which card will you play

Can you stay in control?
Though it’s crushing your soul
Are you going to give in?
Or fight this weakness within
And the worst of it all
Is you let yourself fall
And nobody knows, the anxiety grows
That’s the way that it goes

Is it time to decide
Or face the battle within
Can you open your doors
And let someone else in
Are you going to survive
Will you push them away
All your fear or your hope
Which card will you play

So you pull yourself up
And you pretend its ok
Till your doubts all come down
They’ll come crashing around
But you’ve been down before
Through the bottomless floor
And nobody knows, but your scars are on show
That’s the way that it goes
And nobody knows, your scars are on show
That’s the way that it goes
And nobody knows, your scars are on show
That’s the way that it goes
