Words of fire
Hide what I really
Want to say

I've hidden
Beneath translucent veils
Like everyone else

But tonight
I want you to open your mind
Open your eyes and
See what's inside

(CHORUS)
I lie
Like everyone else
I hide
What needs to be said
Please stop
Listening to my words
For once
Just listen to my heart

Cruel words
Exchanged between us
It's strange
How I still put up with you

And you
Are hiding too
Even though
You deny it
Just as fiercely as I do, oh.

(Repeat Chorus)

Can you really see?
What your's heart been telling you?
Can you truly hear?
What my heart's been screaming all these years?
Close your eyes
Stretch your mind
See what could really be
If we
Just listened to our hearts
"You do ill if you praise, but worse if you censure, what you do not understand." Leonardo Da Vinci

Sort of an awkward beginning...I don't really understand what you mean, and in songs, you have to make sure you keep it simple without having a lot of time to think about it and read it over three or four times like I had to do.
I lie
Like everyone else
I hide
What needs to be said

I'm lying
Like everyone else
I'm hiding
What needs to be said.
Cruel words
Exchanged between us
It's strange
How I still put up with you

I loved this.
when there's nowhere to go, it's time to grow up.

The beggining is...sorta awkward...but the song is awesome!

Very interesting lyrics. Very poetic. I get a alternative vibe from it, which is my favorite type of music. I really liked the chorus. You exposed the flaws of humanity yet did not discredit it either. Nicely done.

Yeah the beginning's a bit awkward but the chorus is good.
