Come outside, the danger’s gone
You’ve been hiding for way too long
Dry your eyes, the time has come
No more use in crying alone
I worry all the time
About everything
About you saying what’s on your mind
About the way that you think
Just hunker down in the shelter we built
Out of all the reasons why not
When we go out, please keep your thoughts to yourself
’Cause I sure don’t want to get caught
But I hate feeling alone
Nobody’s looking to shoot you down
Nobody’s trying to break your heart
Come outside, the danger’s gone
You’ve been hiding for way too long
Dry your eyes, the time has come
No more use in crying alone
You keep talking about feeling trapped
Same thing every day
The worst is over and in the past
Time to walk away
My guard is staying up
And why shouldn’t it be?
It’s hard to wear your heart on your sleeve
After all that we’ve seen
But we’re alive—we survived
Even after what we’ve lost
It’s kind of hard to play your cards
If you don’t stop counting the cost
Do you think you’re alone?
Nobody’s looking for a bleeding heart
Nobody’s trying to smoke you out
You’re an impostor
Not a single thought of your own
Just a series of postures
In the synthetic world you’ve grown
Can you find a way
Out of this lonely cave?
Leave behind the shrine to fallen tears
You know you’re not alone
So many people who live this way
And there is so much more than this
Come outside…
