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
