about
This is a song about people seeing you, but not really SEEING you. It's about the pain we hide from others when we're in public, and everything else we choose to keep to ourselves.
lyrics
[Verse 1]
Life...if you live fast then the world looks slow,
Get high so you can forget how you feel so low.
I know I should say yes but I wanna say know,
It makes me feel small when I'm trying to grow.
Oh-oh...opportunity...
Makes me feel like the world is watching me.
[Chorus]
You won't find me
I'm hidden in plain sight.
I don't want you to see,
But it's written in my eyes.
[Verse 2]
Sometimes I think less is more.
Sometimes the struggles of the rich make them feel so poor.
They say you only find peace by surviving a war,
But after, how do you escape what happened before?
[Bridge]
Oh...
I'm hidden in plain sight.
Oh...
Cos I don't know what's right.
You'll never find me
Even though it's what I really need.
But please don't give up on me
Oh-oh...the word 'community'...
Makes me feel like I'm better off just me.
[Chorus]
Life...if you live fast then the world looks slow,
Get high so you can forget how you feel so low.
I know I should say yes but I wanna say know,
It makes me feel small when I'm trying to grow.
Oh-oh...opportunity...
Makes me feel like the world is watching me.
[Chorus]
You won't find me
I'm hidden in plain sight.
I don't want you to see,
But it's written in my eyes.
[Verse 2]
Sometimes I think less is more.
Sometimes the struggles of the rich make them feel so poor.
They say you only find peace by surviving a war,
But after, how do you escape what happened before?
[Bridge]
Oh...
I'm hidden in plain sight.
Oh...
Cos I don't know what's right.
You'll never find me
Even though it's what I really need.
But please don't give up on me
Oh-oh...the word 'community'...
Makes me feel like I'm better off just me.
[Chorus]
