Hiding
Embracing Shadows: A Journey to Self-Discovery through 'Hiding'
Lyrics
I’m hiding and
I am currently in a state of hiding
I know that it’s from my own self
I acknowledge that this hiding is a result of my own actions or choices
I can’t stand the monster
I cannot tolerate the inner monster or turmoil within me
that lives inside my head.
This inner struggle resides in my thoughts
I’m sad and yet I’m sure
Despite being sad, I am confident that it will take time to overcome
that it will take some time
I believe that the process of overcoming will be gradual
but I’ll rise again.
I will eventually emerge stronger
I’m smiling,
While hiding, I present a smiling and brave facade
trying to keep a brave face
I am attempting to maintain a courageous demeanor
But what my smile can hide
However, my eyes reveal the true emotions that my smile conceals
my eyes can tell
My eyes convey the hidden sadness
(And) they say “I’m sad,
Others observe and say that I am sad
but after a while I’ll rise again”
Despite the sadness, there is confidence in rising again over time
I’ve played this game before
I have experienced a similar situation before
and all that I’ve learned for sure
The only certainty from past experiences is my weariness
is that I’m tired
I am tired of repeating the same cycle
of running inside the wheel.
The repeated actions feel like running in a wheel without progress
I know (that) I must face my fears
I recognize the need to confront my fears
and find out a part of me that I like
I must discover a positive aspect of myself that is currently hidden
but for now is hiding.
At present, that positive aspect remains concealed
I've played this game before
Reiteration of experiencing a similar situation before
and all that I've ever learned
The learning from past experiences is emphasized
is that I'm tired of running inside the wheel.
The weariness of repeating actions is reinforced
I’m looking for where to go
I am actively searching for direction
and all that I know for sure is that
Despite searching, certainty is limited, and a feeling of being trapped is present
I’m trapped in a maze.
I feel confined within a complex situation
So I'm figthing hard to knock down the walls.
A determined effort to break through obstacles and challenges
I guess I should have started a long time ago
A realization that the effort to overcome should have started earlier
but, anyhow, I'm telling myself
Self-encouragement to rise above hiding and face challenges
""Time to rise!
Explicit statement to embrace change and overcome obstacles
It’s no time to be hiding”
An affirmation that it is the right time to stop hiding and take action
