Lyrics
I thought I'd let this go a long time ago
I thought I'd cut it loose and set it free
It keeps on coming back, demanding that I take another look in case I've missed something
(Chorus)
Hey, I don't want to lift the cover off what's been boxed up
Hey, I don't want to look behind and risk
Losing all I've gained, Losing all I've gained
Sometimes a nagging doubt turns me inside out
Whichever way I go I'll hurt somebody
I'm tired of looking in the rear-view mirror when I've got a clear path right in front of me
repeat chorus
Maybe I'll just hide it a little longer
Maybe I'll just hide until I'm stronger
Tomorrow's gonna look
Just like yesterday
If I don't give it up and
Give it all away
I'm heading down the road and
Even if the city's burning
Curiousity won't get the best of me
repeat chorus
