Hide it, don’t let them see you‘re hurt.
Hide your emotions, they‘ll laugh again.
if you show, it can’t be reversed.
they don’t care now and they didn’t care when you where ten.

Hide it, don’t cry loud in your room.
Hide that you can’t breath, just hide it.
They only care about you when you bloom.
Don’t let them see all the things you writ.

Hide the cuts and scars.
They gonna make it about them.
Put the hoodie over your arms.
You‘re not their gem.

Hide your thoughts and your believes.
They don’t care about your opinion.
Hide your needs and your dreams.
Your brother is the one in a million.

Hide your snacks so you can eat when you want.
So they can’t yell because dinner is ready in 3 hours.
Maybe then you learn that it isn’t something you can’t.
They want to have the power.

Just hide so they can’t attack you with their words.
Don’t talk about it, it’s not that bad.
Just hide, so you can’t get them on their nerves.
You have a good family, be glad.

Just hide, you don’t need help.
Maybe you are just pretending.
You have everything you need, you’re blessed.
There is no thing that needs an ending.

Just hide, right?
Everything is good, isn’t it?
Is here everything alright?
But why am I scared of getting hit?
