And end up hurting myself
Hiding the real me
Never really staying the same
So I look to you for answers
And find the peace I need
To go on for another day
Not sure how much of me
I should let others see
Holding back the real me
With you I'm safe
You know what's inside of me
You can see my hopes and dreams
And understand the hurts I feel
So I look to you for answers
And find the peace I need
To go on for another day
Not sure how much of me
I should let others see
Holding back the real me
I try to be different, I really do
And end up crying in your arms
How can people not see
Just what makes up me?
I try hard to please
I make me what others want to see
I die inside a little everyday
Trying to be someone I'm not
So I look to you for answers
And find the peace I need
To go on for another day
Not sure how much of me
I should let others see
Holding back the real me
When you're around I dare to be me
But sometimes I forget
And I hide behind that mask once again
Until in your arms I feel safe enough to be me
Once again
