We hide ourselves from who we are
We trick our minds into being something we're not
We tell ourselves it's who we are
That we can finally be something they want
I tell myself it's who I wanna be
But who I wanna be
It isn't me
Hide and go seek
Running from our lives that are underneath our feet
Hide and go seek
We use a mask to mask the pain
Look in the mirror; it isn't me
It isn't me
And after all the years have gone
The only thing that I miss is who I used to be
I traded my soul
And now I'm starving to know
What it's like
To not be empty inside
Hide and go seek
Running from our lives that are underneath our feet
Hide and go seek
We use a mask to mask the pain
Look in the mirror; it isn't me
It isn't me
Hide and go seek
I'm tired of running for my life
Are you tired of running for your life?
I hide myself from who I am
I collapse into being something I'm not
I tell myself it's who I am
But that I'll never be
Something they want
I always thought it's who I wanna be
But who I wanna be
I wish I was me
