lyrics

Hidden Girl

Just out of sight lurking
Been there since who knows when
Another mystery person
Imaginary friend

Shrined in cobwebs and darkness
Abandoned spider skin
Damp is rising around us
Decay is setting in

Then I open the door on your haunting disguise
Face painted still, daylight’s caught you by surprise

Hidden girl tell me your secret

Stare silent but dead beat
Intoxicating grin
Captured moment of history
Eternity within

Brushed strokes of genius
A mirror like visage
Wishing that you could join us
Escape into my heart

Then I open the door on your haunting disguise
Face painted still, daylight’s caught you by surprise

Hidden girl tell me your secret
