You Can't Hide

Chasing an illusion
I try to hide from the deepest
Whole and the truest part of who I really was.

But there's not a place to hide
When you are standing
Underneath the sky
Even though we try to
You know that you can never hide beneath the stars
You can hide from everyone but you.

Life's not supposed to be easy
When we convince ourselves that happiness
Can happen casually
But every smile is precious
And every small touch of love
Are moments that we're fighting for.

There's not a place to hide
When you are standing underneath the sky
Even though we try to
And you can try, you can try, you can try, you can try, you can try, you can try
But you can only hide from everyone but you.

Life's not supposed to be easy
No one ever knows how their fate will play them
And if their dreams are strong enough to carry and carry them through
No one ever knows
Do we need to know.

No place to hide
Beneath the stars and sky
Yourself defined....ohh....oooo...
