Lyrics
They went digging underground in a foreign land
And dusting off the cash with a careful hand
And finally making sense of things
That we never knew to understand
Hmm, buried in the ages, lost in time
The history out of sight and out of mind
As legend grew like gossip, the truth would be
But no one dared to find
And the truth is often hidden underneath
Like a prophet in the belly of the beast
And like anything that's worth it takes some time
And a little bravery
I'm sitting on a couch in therapy
I'm still talking about my fucked-up family
And terrified to take a look inside
Afraid what I might see
I'm so tired of pretending I'm okay
Building playgrounds over graveyards for display
'Cause there's freedom when we take off the disguise
And just look it in the face
And the truth is often hidden underneath
Like a prophet in the belly of the beast
And like anything that's worth it takes some time
And a little bravery
Yeah, the truth is often hidden underneath
Like a prophet in the belly of the beast
And like anything that's worth it takes some time
And a little bravery
And like anything that's worth it takes some time
And a little bravery
