Hide Yourself Away

from Our Lady of Perpetual Hammer by Libby Hortop

/

about

The People knew not what to do, and stirred uneasily.

Just then, the Lord of the Dance was interrupted by an imposing figure, Our Lady of Perpetual Hammer. “Stay right where you are!” She cried in a commanding voice. “Freedom is dangerous! Hide yourselves away, for the good of humanity.”

lyrics

From every corner comes the call,
Do your part for one and all,
No longer standing free and tall,
Fair to say you lost your nerve,
Trying hard to flatten the curve,
Even so, you don't deserve,

To hide yourself away, hide yourself away,
Hide yourself away, hide yourself away,

Friends you thought were strong and true,
Had your back, through and through,
Now shut their doors against you,
And that old hidden, silent ache,
That you sloughed off so you could make
A better life, it seems a shame,

To hide yourself away, hide yourself away,
Hide yourself away, hide yourself away,

And when the ill wind passes by,
And you remember how to smile,
When the sun shines in the sky,
You and I...

Will find another way, find another way,
We'll find another way, find another way
