here i am looking out looking in
my eyes are open my mind´s closed tight
i believe i know i need to let go
and i know i´m wrong but i think i´m right
so i shut you out
and hear what i want to hear
and hide in my opinions
afraid to face my fear
face the fear

there you are reaching in reaching out
your arms are open, your heart´s closed tight
you believe you know you have to let go
and you think you won´t but you know you might
so you close your eyes
and pretend you´re no here
and hide in your secrets
afraid to face your fear
face the fear

and you close your eyes
i hear what i want to hear
and we hide in our suspicions
afraid to face the fear
face the fear

and i shut you out
you pretend you´re not here
and we hide in our loneliness
afraid to face the fear
face the fear

here we are looking in reaching out
together and alone
facing the fear we´re afraid to show
facing the fear of letting go
