Hide It Away

Can you put the words back on my tongue?
Are my songs already sung?
Am I done with sounding young?
Do we grow up to sell all our trust?
Does our optimism rust?
But I'll learn how to adjust

'Cause it's fine if I choke up, I'll hide it away
I can fake it anyway
If the tears fall off of my face, it's for good
If you notice, I hide from myself
Know it's better for my health
Asking questions doesn't help
'Cause I'm fine

Mother's alone
Her dog, her home
And mother are gone
Have I been wrong?

Kept to myself for all of this time
Traded patience for my pride
But I can no longer hide
Tragedy took me out of my shell
Life gets faster I can tell
Take my wishes from the well

'Cause it's fine if I choke up, I'll hide it away
I can fake it anyway
If the tears fall off of my face it's for good
If you notice I hide from myself
Know it's better for my health
Asking questions doesn't help
'Cause I'm fine

Alright, if I choke up, I'll hide it away
I can fake it anyway
If the tears fall off of my face it's for good
If you notice I'd hide it for myself
Know it's better for my health
Asking questions doesn't help
Cause all night I'll be focused
On finding my worth
Every thought is gonna hurt
He's probably taking off her shirt right now
There's no logic or time for this shit
But I'm gonna take the hit
'Cause I know the benefit is good

I know that all this pain is good
I know that feeling all this pain is good
I know that all this pain is good
I know that feeling all this pain is good
So I can hide it away
Yeah, I'll hide it away
And I'll hide it away for good
