I wish you could see
What's inside of me.
I wish you knew
The real me.
But I'm afraid
Of what you'd see.
Would you still love me?
Not just me, but the one never seen.
I've been wearing this mask
For so long...
I don't want to take it off
It helps me feel strong...
If I take it off
You'd turn your back and run.
I've had it happen before -
The pointing, the mocking, the making fun.
I just wish you could see
All the scars you've left inside of me.
I wish you could see the tears I cried inside
While on th outside I stood there smiling.
Why can't you see it-
What you're doing to me?
Am I hiding it that well-
To the point of non-existancy?
I've always been told,
"It's not good to store it up-
You should let it all out."
I think they should shut up.
If I did let it out
There'd be a World War 3,
Me against the world.
So I say, "Just let it be."
Let me go on in my misery...
Since you'll never see
The real me...
