alex the astronaut - not worth hiding lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i learnt to drive to school when i was 16
and i was happy with my friends, and we skipped cl-ss for time to breathe
we learnt about the stars and the trees
i cried when i found kissing boys wasn’t for me

so i tried every trick in the book
i tried talking to the pretty boys, and changed the way i looked
but wearing dresses to impress just left me lonely and upset
and the boys could tell when i looked at her, i wasn’t interested in them

[chorus 1]
it’s not worth hiding if you’ve got something to say
and it’s not worth smiling if you’re feeling in pain
and it’s not worth hiding if you think you might be g-y
or different in another way – you’re perfect just the same!

[instrumental]

[verse 2]
i open the paper and it left me in shame;
it said, “these contagious g-ys aren’t safe and you should keep your kids away”
but i grew older and bolder, and my friends caught on slowly
19, and we’re through, all the way to my shoulders – we sang:

[chorus 1]
it’s not worth hiding if you’ve got something to say
and it’s not worth smiling if you’re feeling in pain
and it’s not worth hiding if you think you might be g-y
or different in another way – you’re perfect just the same!

[verse 3]
so tell me, anyone
if you love them as a daughter, could you love them as a son?
we all smile at different faces, we all blush at different names
but holding someone’s hand should never make you feel ashamed

[verse 4]
your story might not be at all like mine
i don’t mean to simplify, that should be in your own voice, in your own time
but the cages that they’ve made us should soon just rust away
and this song just won’t need singing, but for now, i’ll let it play

[chorus 2]
it’s not worth hiding if you’ve got something to say
and it’s not worth dying for the people who don’t smile at your name
it’s not worth lying if you’re feeling in pain
and it’s not worth hiding if it’s happiness that could be on your way…
