Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's no time for hide and seek
Knowing you are secretive
Fit in now and you don't see it
Truth is that you don't see it
Time always tells the truth
Time always tells the truth
Fit in now and you don't see it
Flying happy
Just repeat it
Time always tells the truth
Time always tells the truth
But you don't see it
But you don't see it
