Track No: 08

I feel like when you're going through periods of your life
Where you're feeling really deep depression
You tend to shut the world out
Which is probably the wrong thing to do
But it just always feels like the only thing to do
You draw the curtains, close the door
"I don't wanna speak to anyone
Leave me alone", basically
And I'm fortunate enough to have lots of brilliant people in my life
Lots of really kind friends
My wife, my parents
And you know
There's always someone there to help draw the curtains and let in the sunshine
And this is what this song's about
It's called 'Curtains'
Can you pull the curtains, let me see the sunshine?
I think I'm done with my hiding place
And you found me anyway
It's been forever, but I'm feeling alright
Tears dry and will leave no trace
And tomorrow's another day
Hide and seek
I am somewhere closed away
You won't believe
How long it's been since I started the game
I can't be seen
And you won't find me today
I've not been this low, but I'll be okay
Are you alright? Maybe, don't ask
'Cause you know I never like to talk about that
Keep it inside, yeah, you say I always hold back
And I always wear long sleeves
Is it in your childhood? Something happen in your past?
The sadness, I promise that it won't last
And if I could, I would try to take it all back
There's still more underneath
And it's when you say to me
Can you pull the curtains, let me see the sunshine?
I think I'm done with my hiding place
And you found me anyway
It's been forever, but I'm feeling alright
Tears dry and will leave no trace
And tomorrow's another day
Let me see the sun shine, shine, shine
Let me see the sun shine, shine, shine
Let me see the sun shine, shine, shine
Let me see the sun shine
Hide and seek
Count to ten and close your eyes
Try to breathe
See a message and don't reply
Nice to meet
But in reality say goodbye
Life can be so beautiful if you try
Are you okay? Yeah, I guess so
But on some days, I feel like I'm trapped in a hole
But I keep quiet, so everyone around me don't know
The mountain feels so steep
And I guess that I'm here to help to carry the load
And the outside rays, they are good for the soul
So let's step out of the dark, 'cause in here it's so cold
Still more underneath
And it's when you say to me
Can you pull the curtains, let me see the sunshine?
I think I'm done with my hiding place
And you found me anyway
Been forever, but I'm feeling alright
Tears dry and will leave no trace
And tomorrow's another day
Let me see the sun shine, shine, shine
Let me see the sun shine, shine, shine
Let me see the sun shine, shine, shine
Let me see the sun shine
