[Verse 1]
Everybody's got their shit
But who's got the guts to sit with it?
Everybody's on their own
So that way we're never alone
But the mirror in another's eyes
That'll get you every time
There are a thousand different ways to hide

[Chorus]
Hiding out in the open
Maybe I'm gonna let you down
Nothing's gonna make us new
What's done is not gonna undo
Hiding out in the open
Maybe he's gonna let me down
Love is not a thing you try to do
It wants to be the thing compelling you

[Verse 2]
What we should probably say
Let's put off for a few more days
And anyway, I'll pretend not to hear
Until you whisper it in my ear
Ooh, hot voice on my neck
Would change the context
I want you warm as a loaf of bread
Thousand ways to be fed
[Chorus]
Hiding out in the open
Maybe I'm gonna let you down
Nothing's gonna make us new
What's done is not gonna undo
Hiding out in the open
Maybe he's gonna let me down
Love is not a thing you try to do
It wants to be the thing compelling you

[Outro]
To be you
Love is not a thing you try to do
It wants to be the thing compelling you
To be you
