There's more to me than what you see
Fragments of a soul I choose to be
Thoughts in my mind you'll never know
I'm only the things I choose to show

Graceless lies upon my shelf
Books of dreams kept to myself
Enchanted night only I embrace
Unfinished thoughts forgotten in haste

Woke one day to see the sun
And realized I'm not anyone
Apart from me, my quiet disguise
But in my solitude, I feel alive

----------------------------------------

Tearing me open but I can’t break free
From the chaos inside I know it’s just not me
In your eyes I was the summer sun
You saw through my darkened eyes
To what no one could see

Everything around me is fading so fast
I don’t want to be the one who fades last
And I can’t comprehend
What this is doing to me

----------------------------------------

Someday, my eyes will open up
And I’ll realize I’ve wasted my time
Then, I’ll look out at a new world
And I’ll see what I’ve always felt inside
Realizing, I’ve yet to live
My life is nothing but lying
Realizing, I have to scream
My life is not worth hiding
Someday, you’ll look at me
With eyes that can’t afford blinking
Then, you’ll notice something there
And understand without ever thinking

----------------------------------------

There was a time I'd give anything to smile
Now I'd give anythign to go back to that time
I'd do anything now to stop crying

----------------------------------------

I'm the dead that's never dying
Existing though my soul's still hiding
Living in a constant fear
I've seen everything I can here

I'm the flower that's never blooming
Being though I am not working
Falling under so much doubt
I've passed my time for coming out

I'm the storm that won't stop raging
Sick of calm and done with waiting
Pouring till there's nothing left
I've still got rain to fall down yet

I'm the truth that's never lying
Cringing through the dark world's crying
Seeing what you'll never see
All because I'm stuck as me
