Peel back all of the laughter and smiling
Let your emotions have the day off
So you can see what's underneath it all
Take away the people, the ones you depend on
Remove your successes and the empires you've built
Swallow your pride and tear down the walls
And reality will unfold and the truth is told
(Chorus)
When no one is watching
It's just you and the wind
When the masquerades are over
Who are you then
Take a look inside your heart
Cause whatever remains is
Who you really are
So What happens after the heart is uncovered
What if you've nothing to show but your grief
Embarrassed and naked- it hurts to be seen
Come and listen to the story of a man named Jesus
Who died for your sins so you could be free
And He wants to pour out His love if you'll only believe
Then reality will unfold and the truth will be told
(Chorus)
When no one is watching
It's just you and the wind
After you've danced with desperation
And Jesus comes in
Take a look inside your heart
Cause whatever remains is
Who you really are
