In Hiding Lyrics by Genesis

From Genesis to Revelation

1969

[Chorus]
Pick me up, put me down
Push me in, turn me round
Switch me on, let me go
I have a mind of my own

[Verse 1]
In hiding, far from the city of night
And the factories of truth
I stand upon the mountain
A million miles from my home
And the faces of fear
I have freedom to think in hiding
I may take off my clothes
That I wear on my face
I float upon a river
A million miles from the plains
That are piercing the clouds
I am lost in the beauty, in hiding

[Chorus]
Pick me up, put me down
Push me in, turn me round
Switch me on, let me go
I have a mind of my own

[Verse 2]
I wish you were here in hiding
I lie silent at last
I am free from my past
I walk among the tall trees
This is beauty I know, I am in love with it all
I have the freedom to love, in hiding

[Chorus]
Pick me up, put me down
Push me in, turn me round
Switch me on, let me go
I have a mind of my own
Pick me up, put me down
Push me in, turn me round
Switch me on, let me go
I have a mind of my own
