You wrestle with your conscience

To free your better self

But did you think for one moment

You could be someone else

Between a rock and a hard place

Is where you seem to be

You've been caught in a trap

Between the devil and the deep blue sea

All those nights so lonely

Of the tears that you cry

You can't hide from the hurt inside

You're in a situation

Pray this time will pass

But it feels like you're walking

Over miles and miles of broken glass

Into, into a corner

Where the sun never shines

Somebody's turned on the spotlight

You forgot to learn your lines

In the place you once called your heart

There's a wound that's open wide

You can't hide from the hurt inside

When you're thinking about the hard times

Everyone's been through

But it won't make no difference

See your face the way you do

In this blue condition

You must search for the light

Don't believe them when they tell you

You can't hold back the nights

Between a rock and a hard place

Is where you'll always be

Caught in a trap

Between the devil and the deep blue sea

So many words unspoken

So many times you never try

You can't hide from the hurt inside

There's one thing you can't hide

That's the hurt inside
