Thinking about the path we've been on, I know we learned a lot of things.
|
Searching through the pages of our history to see what my memory brings to me.
|
It doesn't matter the lies we tell. Our insecurities we hide so well.
|
A revolution based on honesty, but it won't matter till you see me for me.
|
My mind's been racing, but I don't think you've heard.
|
What I'm trying to tell you my emotions are so blurred.
|
Please, please don't give up on me.
|
I hope you can see that I'm...
|
(chorus) so afraid to be myself and speak my mind.
|
I'm so scared that you won't like what you might find.
|
Time keeps wasting while I look away
|
never realizing the truth that I've locked away.
|
I made a promise to myself that I would one day keep.
|
To find the courage and the strength and in myself believe.
|
Please, please don't give up on me. I just hope you can see. Go!
|
The truth is not always easy and it's so hard to please.
|
Hoping that you'll understand that's the price you pay for honesty. (chorus)
|
Time keeps wasting away, but that's the price you pay for honesty.
|
And it won't matter the lies we tell. Our insecurities we hide so well.
|
A revolution based on honesty, but it won't matter until you see me for me.
