lyrics

GRACE:
I’m well aware
Of this stupid act you’ve been putting on
Now what I want is the real you

You can play
This old game until you drive yourself insane
But what I want is the real you
I see him somewhere inside you

SID:
How can I give you what you’re asking for
When I can’t even tell myself
From this strange role I’m playing anymore?

Show me the way to me
’Cause I can’t see it—no, I can’t see it…

GRACE:
Whatever you’ve been pushing down
In the depths of you
It’s time to let it all out
You’ve been holding back—
For a long time, too
And now it’s time to let it out

Whatever you’ve been hiding from
Behind closed doors
I think it’s time to let it all out
Just some honesty’s
All I’m looking for
Now it’s time to let it out

SID:
Well, okay, maybe you’ve got a point or two
But you don’t want to see the real me

It’s a sad and weak thing turning black and blue
From all I’ve done to the real me

GRACE:
Still you won’t give me what I’m asking for
’Cause you’re afraid that all you are
Is just a shadow, always wanting more

But there is strength in you,
And I can see it,
Don’t hold in

Whatever you’ve been pushing down
In the depths of you
’Cause it’s time to let it all out
You’ve been holding back—
For a long time, too
And now it’s time to let it out

Whatever you’ve been hiding from
Behind closed doors
I think it’s time to let it all out
And the antidote
You’ve been searching for is to
Take a chance and let it out

Let it all out…

SID:
There’s so much I can’t hear
With all these voices in my ears

GRACE:
Then lift your head above the noise

SID:
And what if I just can’t do it?
What if I can’t break through it?

GRACE:
It’s up to you to make that choice

(Instrumental)

Whatever you’ve been pushing down
In the depths of you
It’s time to let it all out
You’ve been holding back—
For a long time, too
And now it’s time to let it out

Whatever you’ve been hiding from
Behind closed doors
I think it’s time to let it all out
And the sweet relief
You’ve been searching for
Can only come if you let it out

Let it all out...

Let it out
