I love 'Hide' - its a very good song with meaning.

Thanks for the suggestions too! :)

Oh! They put new songs on - must have been overnight... silly Barlow Girl - we were listening! Dunno where else to listen to it...

Here are the lyrics:


"Mirror"

Mirror, Mirror on the wall, Have I got it?
'Cause Mirror you've always told me who I am
I'm finding it's not easy to be perfect
So sorry you won't define me
Sorry you don't own me

Who are you to tell me
That I'm less than what I should be?
Who are you? Who are you?
I don't need to listen
To the list of things I should do
I won't try, I won't try

Mirror I am seeing a new reflection
I'm looking into the eyes of He who made me
And to Him I have beauty beyond compare
I know He defines me

You don't define me, you don't define me

[woven_wings]

Here are the other lyrics:



Joy Williams - Hide
From the album Genesis
To anyone who hides behind a smile
To anyone who hold there pain inside
To anyone who thinks they’re not good enough
To anyone who feels unworthy of love
To anyone who ever closed the door
Closed their eyes and locked themselves away

Chorus:
You don’t have to hide
You don’t have to hide anymore
You don’t have to face this on your own
You don’t have to hide anymore

So come out, come out
Come out wherever you are
Anyone who’s trying to cover up their scars
To anyone who’s ever made a big mistake
We’ve all been there so don’t be ashamed
So come out, come out and join the rest of us
You’ve been alone for way to long

Chorus:

And if you feel like no one understands
Come to the one with scars on His hands
Cause He knows where you are and where you’ve been
His scars will heal you if you let Him

Chorus:

You don’t have to…
You don’t have to hide
Come out, come out wherever you are
You don’t have to hide
Come out, come out
Come out wherever you are
You don’t have to hide
You don’t have to…




Cut - By Plumb

I'm not a stranger
No I am yours
With crippled anger
And tears that still drip sore

A fragile flame aged
Is misery
And when our hearts meet
I know you see

I do not want to be afraid
I do not want to die inside just to breathe in
I'm tired of feeling so numb
Relief exists I find it when
I am cut

I may seem crazy
Or painfully shy
And these scars wouldn't be so hidden
If you would just look me in the eye
I feel alone here and cold here
Though I don't want to die
But the only anesthetic that makes me feel anything kills inside


I do not want to be afraid
I do not want to die inside just to breathe in
I'm tired of feeling so numb
Relief exists I find it when
I am cut
Pain
I am not alone
I am not alone

I'm not a stranger
No I am yours
With crippled anger
And tears that still drip sore

But I do not want to be afraid
I do not want to die inside just to breathe in
I'm tired of feeling so numb
Relief exists I found it when
I was cut

Intervention - Faith Gilmore

Verse 1:
The kid is fresh out of luck
She’s feelin down and out
She’s fallen flat on her hip
She needs a turn about
The train has come off the track
Her belly on the ground
She’s got a crook in her path
The sky is fallin out
Pre Chorus:
Oh, how her path’s uncertain
None of her plans are workin’
Where is the light for the end?
Chorus:
She needs your help
She needs Your hand
Oh, she needs an intervention
She needs your love
You understand
Oh, she needs an intervention
Verse 2:
She’s had about all she’ll take
The road is bowin out
She’s movin every which way
But now she’s turned around
She’s giving You all her trust
She’s gonna take a chance
She’s only got but one
More penny in her hand
Pre Chorus:
Oh, there’s a burning question
She’s looking for a lesson
Who’s gonna calm all the waves?
