Hidden Away Lyrics

Old faded memories covered in rust
Treasures from long ago turned into dust
Waiting for someone to open the door
Nobody comes around here anymore
Pages from books that have never been read
Words that were written, but never were said
Packed up in boxes and hidden away
Never again see the light of the day
All of these things that we don't leave behind
Sit in the darkness of night
Spending a lifetime hidden away from the light
Far past the crack in the old cellar door
And under the boards in the living room floor
Letters from someone you knew in the past
Searching by flashlight, shadows are cast
Long since forgotten, but still on your mind
Left to the wayside, but not left behind
We carry it with us, don't even know Why we hold on and we can't let it go
And all of these things that we don't leave behind
Sit in the darkness of night
Spending a lifetime, hidden away from the light
And the minutes are turning to days
As the memories are fading to grey
And the feeling just sinks like a stone
Hidden away in the shadows
Forgotten and left all alone
Out of the shadows and into the hall
Thoughts are collecting, building a wall
Consumed by the life, you were living before
Cast off the burden and open the door
And all of these things that we don't leave behind
Sit in the darkness of night
Spending a lifetime hidden away from the light
Hidden away from the light
Hidden away from the light
