“Everything I Am”
I’m not one to wonder if my shoes are on the right feet.
Just as long as I’m standing, I’m okay.
And I wonder what you think of when you look at me.
Would I feel better if I knew what you know
Or would I be better off without you.
I can’t bare to see myself in the eyes of someone else.
For fear that what I see will turn myself against me.
I hold myself up in front of a mirror to the world,
A mirror that will shatter and break when it sees the life I face.
And I cant help but wish to be someone else.
I cant turn around and pretend
That I am who I want to be, because in the end,
I hide everything from you,
Everything I am
I know I can turn to you,
But that’s not the road I want to take.
My secrets despise the truth it seeks,
And I know that no matter what,
All the things inside of me,
Are too much for you to handle.
Maybe I am better off without you
I can face the demons by myself.
I wont drag along behind you
But I will tie my own shoes on my own two feet.
And I cant help but wish to be someone else.
I cant turn around and pretend
That I am who I want to be, because in the end,
I hide everything from you,
Everything I am
