[Verse 1]
She kept your name in her throat
Like a song she wouldn't sing
Hand to mouth in crowded rooms
Trying to hide everything
But your laugh hit like daylight
On a window she kept shut
Now her heart won't play along
It wants out, it wants love
[Pre-Chorus]
Not a phase, not a game
Not a secret she can cage
Every glance says the truth
Every touch says the same
She's tired of looking down
Tired of folding in
When your hand found hers
Something in her said begin
[Chorus]
No more hiding now
No more hiding now
She loves who she loves
And she says it out loud
No more hiding now
No more hiding now
If the world won't bend
Then she'll stand her ground
[Verse 2]
You were tucked behind closed doors
Like a note left in a coat
Two girls passing through the night
With the same kind of hope
And the fear was always louder
Than the life you had to live
So you watered down your truth
Just to keep the peace you gave
[Pre-Chorus]
But the lie got heavy
And the silence got mean
She was born with a fire
That was never meant to freeze
Now the old fear shakes
When you step into the sun
She says, "I can't go back
To the girl I was before you came"
[Chorus]
No more hiding now
No more hiding now
She loves who she loves
And she says it out loud
No more hiding now
No more hiding now
If the world won't bend
Then she'll stand her ground
[Bridge]
Let them stare
Let them learn
Let the shy old shame just burn
You and me
We don't fold
We were never made to hold
Every part of us in chains
Every kiss beneath the pain
Now we open up the door
And we don't apologize no more
[Final Chorus]
No more hiding now
No more hiding now
She loves who she loves
And she says it out loud
No more hiding now
No more hiding now
Hands in the open
Heart first, all the way out
