Hide Away Lyrics by Oceanator

Things I Never Said

2020

[Verse 1]
I saw the fire the day that I met you
Crackling
Felt the flames up close and licking my face
And it was too hot, too hot to bear
And it ate up, ate up all of the air

[Verse 2]
We felt the ground shifting slowly
Underneath
The land pulling apart beneath our feet
So we wait for wait for the rain
And we try to invent games to keep ourselves sane

[Chorus]
Now we settle on the edge of the world we just left behind and
Now we settle down and watch from afar as our world comes to an end and we
Hide away
And waste away all of our afternoons
And hide away
And wonder how many afternoons we have left

[Verse 3]
I lost the fire a year after I lost you
It fizzled out
It got too hard to keep stoked and healthy
I feel too old too stiff to move
There seems no point no light without you

[Chorus]
Now we settle on the edge of the world we just left behind and
Now we settle down and watch from afar as our world comes to an end and we
Hide away
And waste away all of our afternoons
And hide away
And wonder how many afternoons we have left

[Bridge]
You were slipping away
And there was nothing I could do about it
And you were getting worse every day
And all I could do was watch and wait
You would try to smile through it all
But sometimes you couldn't manage that
And I was no help at all

[Verse 4]
And I'm sorry that in the end there was nothing I could do
And I'm sorry you had to watch your world crumble down around you
And I'm trying to forget the last time that I saw your face
But I think that it's the one memory of you I can't seem to replace

[Chorus]
Now I settle on the edge of the world we just left behind
And now I settle down and watch from afar as the world comes to an end
And I hide away
And waste away all of my afternoons
And hide away
And wonder how many afternoons I have left and I
(Hide away) Watch and wait as I see everything falling down all around me and
(Hide away) Waste away as the water dries up and the fires roll in and
I, I don't mind or wouldn't
If you were still here beside me
We'd hide away
