And it all gets too much
And then that's when I sleep with my eyes open
And no one ever see past the mask that I've hung on the door
No one ever thinks there's no one at home
And if they do...
Well I'm long gone
Lost within me
It's always been the same
It's always been the way
There are blurred figures stepping over me
Pushing me, teasing me, laughing at me
One step nearer and I'll have you
I'm warning you
It's not me you see when I'm sleeping with my eyes open
I can't hold my emotions
I just let them loose to fly
It's always the same
It's always been the same
Why is it that they do not see me as me?
To them I'm a name and a number
And it's always been the same
And it all gets too much for me
I can't cope with it all
I hate being invisible while they keep staring at the mask I wear
But there's no way I'm speaking up, waking up
They can find a way to find me
I'm in here somewhere
Look deep, past the mask
And you'll see I'm sleeping with my eyes open
**i guess this could go in sad > depression as well**
