The traffic's backed for miles
on these quiet suburban roads
while the rubber necking strangers
are dying to see this victim's wounds
cause he’s all alone
with his notebooks and poems
in this empty grave where he wrote
all of his secrets that became his lyrics
with no intent to show anyone
[Chorus]
and we give and we give
but its all for nothing
its all for nothing
we try to resist but I give
everything and its all for nothing
so the panic sets and cycles
his mind for restless sleep
while the blood sucking leeches
contaminate every line they read
just leave him alone in this dark room
this white sheet tightly wrapped cocoon
cause its no secret
I fucking need this
Like I don’t need anyone
[Chorus x2]
It's like I’m falling asleep with my eyes open
shutting down and off the lights
cause after all of this it’s all or nothing
still I wouldn’t try to fight
I've fallen asleep with my eyes open
(and you'll lie to all your friends)
(about sights you never saw)
shutting down and off the lights
(and you'll preach to all the press)
(about what you don't know at all)
cause after all of this it's all or nothing
still I wouldn't try to fight
So let me drown so I can breathe again
I’m through choking and suffocating
on alter egos and alterior motives
which weigh you down and take control of
the way you are and the things that you need
the life you live and the dreams that you dream
distort and blur all in slow motion
they broke down and now you're broken
and it’s sadder than the saddest movie
I ever saw but with out the beauty
so I stopped watching, I stopped caring
I lost all interest and I stopped wearing
these plastic smiles I’ll wash my hands clean
I'll forget that you forgot about me
and I’ll live the life, the big city feeling
cause it’s better than suburban dreaming
Living off the friends that hate you
who talk shit on me
like I don't know who my real friends are
anymore no I don’t know you anymore
and it’s sadder than the saddest movie
I ever saw but without the beauty
so I'll stopped watching, I'll stopped caring
[Singing in background]
(spill the ink and spill your guts again)
spill the ink and spill your guts again
I've fallen asleep with my eyes open
(and you'll lie to all your friends)
(about sights you never saw)
shutting down and off the lights
(and you'll preach to all the press)
(about what you don't know at all)
cause after all of this it's all or nothing
still I wouldn't try to fight

Hidden In Plain View è stata una band emo di cinque membri proveniente dal nord del New Jersey. Formatisi nel 2000, si sono sciolti nel 2007. Durante i loro sei anni e mezzo di attività, il gruppo ha pubblicato dischi con quattro etichette discografiche diverse (tra cui la più nota etichetta indipendente Drive-Thru Records), tra cui due album in studio e tre EP. Hidden In Plain View ha suonato numerosi tour concertistici come il Warped Tour e i Drive-Thru Records Invasion Tours negli Stati Uniti, Europa e Giappone. Il loro sound emo era caratterizzato da melodie orecchiabili, testi introspettivi e un'energia dal vivo contagiosa. Tra le canzoni più rappresentative si ricordano 'The World Is A Beautiful Place', 'I Don't Know What To Do With Myself' e 'This Is How We Live'.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
