From the recording Messages - 2018 Album Release
Lyrics
Living in the shadows – Always trying to pretend
Telling lies to the ones around us – That we call our friends
Sworn to silence – At the risk of losing everything
It’s a dance that we’re doing in the dark – Dreading what the light will bring
Let’s tell the world – Let’s scream it from the mountaintop
What’s the worst that can happen if we pull back the curtain and smile
Let’s tell the world – We’ve got to share the news
And let the chips fall all around us so we can play the cards we drew
From now on – We won’t have to run and hide
We can face the music together – And put our fears aside
What they think – It doesn’t matter anymore
The love we share will guide us – Through the rising storm
Let’s tell the world – Let’s scream it from the mountaintop
What’s the worst that can happen if we pull back the curtain and smile
Let’s tell the world – We’ve got to share the news
And let the chips fall all around us so we can play the cards we drew
Breaking all the rules – And taking them for fools
Falling ever deeper underground
Nothing good can come of this – Only broken promises
Treading dirty waters ‘till we drown
We’re not free – We’re prisoners to consequence
But the fire that burns inside us is all that’s making any sense
There may be anger – There may be jealousy
But when we’re out in the open they will finally see what we can see
Let’s tell the world – Let’s scream it from the mountaintop
What’s the worst that can happen if we pull back the curtain and smile
Let’s tell the world – We’ve got to share the news
And let the chips fall all around us so we can play the cards we drew
Let’s tell the world
Let’s tell the world
Let’s tell the world
Let’s tell the world
