Foolish heart looks like we're here again
|
Same old game of plastic smile
|
Don't let anybody in
|
Hiding my heartache, will this glass house break
|
How much will they take before I'm empty
|
Do I let it show, does anybody know?
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
But you see the real me
|
Hiding in my skin, broken from within
|
Unveil me completely
|
I'm loosening my grasp
|
There's no need to mask my frailty
|
Cause you see the real me
|
Painted on, life is behind a mask
|
Self-inflicted circus clown
|
I'm tired of the song and dance
|
Living a charade, always on parade
|
What a mess I've made of my existence
|
But you love me even now
|
And still I see somehow
|
But you see the real me
|
Hiding in my skin, broken from within
|
Unveil me completely
|
I'm loosening my grasp
|
There's no need to mask my frailty
|
Cause you see the real me
|
Wonderful, beautiful is what you see
|
When you look at me
|
You're turning the tattered fabric of my life into
|
A perfect tapestry
|
I just wanna be me
|
But you see the real me
|
Hiding in my skin, broken from within
|
Unveil me completely
|
I'm loosening my grasp
|
There's no need to mask my frailty
|
Cause you see the real me
|
And you love me just as I am
|
Wonderful, beautiful is what you see
|
When you look at me
|
