The Real You

The past you hold inside, full of unnecessary anguish and pain
The torment and sorrow, you are reminded of each and everyday
Now tears of anger and despair stream down from your face
Because you cannot break free from where you want to escape
So here I am once again, waiting for you to come and cry to me
Because I'm the only one who truly understood you in the end
The tension starts to rise, conflict begins, and the violence starts again
And as I see the stars shine above, the sky turns black, so I slowly start to bleed
And I'm bleeding for you, to show everyone who you really are
Showing them the real you, to give you the chance to stich up your scars
If only they saw the side of you that I do, so thoughtful and sweet
Then maybe they would begin to see the side of you that's worth it's keep
And yes you may have a dark side that you rarely showed
It was something that no one else could take, so you copped it
It's the side of you that made my darkest emotions overflow
But then I realised that everyone's got skeletons in their closet
Now we move forward to the present day, what's your situation?
Seems like it hasn't changed all that much from when I first noticed your incarceration
The continued suffering and misery of a haunted soul, begging for salvation
I want to be the one to stop this mutilation and devastation
And I'm bleeding for you, to show everyone who you really are
Showing them the real you, to give you the chance to stich up your scars
If only they saw the side of you that I do, so thoughtful and sweet
Then maybe they would begin to see the side of you that's worth it's keep
And now my greatest weaknesses are fear and uncertainty
Because you left me, not knowing where our relationship will lead
You gave me the impression that you don't want me around anymore
Which is a feeling that makes me feel increasingly insecure
Now I know that I did say things in the heat of the moment, which I did not mean
And I know it might have felt like I had lost all faith and belief in you
All I can say is that I'm sorry for jumping to conclusions, before knowing the truth
But if I didn't love and care, then why am I crying countless tears as the starts shine down on me
And I'm bleeding for you, to show everyone who you really are
Showing them the real you, to give you the chance to stich up your scars
If only they saw the side of you that I do, so thoughtful and sweet
Then maybe they would begin to see the side of you that's worth it's keep
