My Song: No Where To Hide

No Where To Hide(c) 2006 Ahmed Arsalan
by A. Arsalan

Sometimes I cry
There's no where to hide
I used to smile
It's been a while

And when I died
I could not lie
No reasons why
Nothing that I
Could say, could do,
To change, what I once chose to do

I wish I could see
All the misery
And all the fallacy
Of my tyranny

I wish I could be
Kind, with humility
Throw the cloak of "me"
Serve humanity

But it's too late
'Cause when I died
I realized
I had made my choice
And now I lie, in the earth,
So ashamed, so alone inside

And when I died
I could not lie
No reasons why
Nothing that I
Could say, could do,
To change, what I once chose to do

I wish I were a fly
I failed myself and my soul
I wish I didn't die
I could go back and change my fate

I wish I could be let go
Even though I didn't try
I wish I listened to my soul
When I lived, I was preoccupied

Now I lie, in wait,
For the ruling, to see my fate
Oh dear Lord, I have wronged myself
I never ever lived, I just survived

And when I died
I could not lie
No reasons why
Nothing that I
Could say, could do,
To change, what I once chose to do

I wish I could be let go
Even though I didn't try
I wish I listened to my soul
When I lived, I was preoccupied

But it's too late
'Cause when I died
I realized
I had made my choice
And now I lie, in the earth,
So ashamed, so alone inside
