Hide and Seek
dePresno Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can see your struggle
It's casting shadows on your pale skin
Oh, let me crawl under
I'll help you conquer this feeling of now
Go somewhere that you won't be found
And I promise I'll go looking for you
Looking for you
Go somewhere that you won't be found
And I promise I'll go looking for you
Looking for you
While you've been away, know that I've been away too
I've been looking for you
Looking for you
While you've been away, know that I've been away too
I've been looking for you
Looking for you
Why are we so fragile?
Like tiny figures made out of glass
Some break on the pavement, while others reach for the stars
Go somewhere that you won't be found
And I promise I'll go looking for you
Looking for you
Go somewhere that you won't be found
And I promise I'll go looking for you
Looking for you
While you've been away, know that I've been away too
I've been looking for you
Looking for you
While you've been away, know that I've been away too
I've been looking for you
Looking for you
While you've been away, know that I've been away too
I've been looking for you
Looking for you
While you've been away, know that I've been away too
I've been looking for you
Looking for you
While you've been away, know that I've been away too
I've been looking for you
Looking for you
While you've been away, know that I've been away too




I've been looking for you
Looking for you
