Verse 1: | |
It's been a while since she's felt | |
She could look someone in the eye | |
Quite a while since she's felt | |
The strength to even try | |
And all of her sins are piled like a tower of doom | |
And no one knows she's not what they assume | |
Chorus: | |
'cause she's been hiding in the shadows of a lie | |
Hiding in the shadows you can die | |
Verse 2: | |
So sincere no one could have doubted where she stood | |
But through the years only her intentions remained good | |
And like an actress typecast in a picture perfect part | |
She played a role but it wasn't from the heart | |
Chorus: | |
And now she's hiding in the shadows of a lie | |
Hiding in the shadows you can die | |
Bridge: | |
It only gets harder to tell the truth | |
And one lie is never enough | |
Verse 3: | |
It may be hard to admit you've failed him now and then | |
But healing comes when his light illuminates your sin | |
And people might reject you when the truth is hard to bear | |
But failure is the one thing we all share | |
Chorus: | |
So don't go hiding in the shadows of a lie | |
Consider hiding in the shadows you can die | |
Oh, hiding in the shadows of a lie | |
Consider hiding in the shadows you can die | |
Hiding in the shadows... |
