HidePlace

I was so small
And felt so fragile I could fall
Still I would get up
And keep walking on

I saw the whole world turn ‘round
And turn its back on me
Cause it was easier to sit and laugh
And wait for everyone to hit the wall
And crash their faces

But not me
I never wanted it to be this way
Not me
I’d give my hand for you to take
I’d walk alongside
I’d be there to dry your tears
And hold you
And be your safe place
And be your hideplace

I’ve been through all of this before
I know what it’s to stare and not be able to cross that door
The mere thought of leaving is so frightening

The world keeps turning ‘round and ‘round
And turn its back against me
Cause it is easier to sit and laugh
And wait for everyone to hit the wall
And crash their faces

But not me
I never wanted it to be this way
Not me
I’d give my hand for you to take
I’d walk alongside
I’d be there to dry your tears
And hold you
And be your safe place
And be your hideplace

I know I can't change your destiny
But I can try to be your soothing breeze, oh, yeah
You’ve gone black and white in a grayscaled life
Come out and let your colors shine

I never wanted it to be this way
I’d walk alongside
I’d be there to dry your tears
(And hold you)

And be your safe place
And be your hideplace
And be your safe place
And be your hideplace
