On the warmest day in winter You were summoned from above And you were sad and you were tired And you'd used up all your love That night you asked the same old question Like so many nights before And you called out to the stars above you For the answer or the door It's been so long and its been so hard To keep these shields over my heart 'Cause they won't protect me from the fact That I can't retrace my old steps back Your television filled its screen with static You came back from commercial break And that's when the hired, tired T.V. actor Broke the news that you'd been dying to fake Baby, tell me where you are going Your eyes are glowing But you're not there And this is far too real so lets start slowing The way that you're growing Just don't be scared 'Cause you don't have to hide anymore Please don't hide anymore Baby, your eyes, they cannot see me It's because they're someone else's eyes I'm begging you, please, please, please You don't have to live under his scores 'Cause you deserve so much more It just isn't fair But don't be scared You know that I care And you don't have to hide anymore Please don't hide anymore
