ABOVE THE HIDING
It’s been a while, we’ve been down, now it’s time we change the score
Breath in the air, be who we are
Who would’ve thought we’d come so far?
It’s taken a while, but I’ve found that I keep on wanting it more
Never before felt so much love
Ready to live this life above the hiding
Too many times I missed the chance to be there
Crippled by fear, thinking they’d care
Living a lie, I thought the truth would leave me
Alone to hide, still I’d decide
That I’d grown tired of playing out that role
And I know this is real, something I can own
It’s been a while, we’ve been down, now it’s time we change the score
Breath in the air, be who we are
Who would’ve thought we’d come so far?
It’s taken a while, but I’ve found that I keep on wanting it more
Never before felt so much love
Ready to live this life above the hiding
Too many times I missed the chance to meet them
Gone is that time, what could’ve been mine
I made the choice to keep my feelings secret
To just behave, ‘cause I couldn’t be saved
But I’ve grown tired of playing out that role
And it’s time we live the truth, something I can own
It’s been a while, we’ve been down, now it’s time we change the score
Breath in the air, be who we are
Who would’ve thought we’d come so far?
It’s taken a while, but I’ve found that I keep on wanting it more
Never before felt so much love
Ready to live this life above the hiding
Nobody asked for this
But you choose your part
Surrender into it
And you’ll find your heart
It’s been a while, we’ve been down, now it’s time we change the score
Breath in the air, be who we are
Who would’ve thought we’d come so far
It’s taken a while, but I’ve found that I keep on wanting it more
Never before felt so much love
Ready to live this life above the hiding
Beautiful.
This is so beautiful. The way that internal journey of denial and critical, even harsh, self-awareness is presented here is masterful. Thank you for making this!! Love love love!
