lyrics

Don't you look at me like you can't see the trouble that's inside.
You know that it can't be like it seems; it's simpler from outside. But I won't let you in.

It's much easier to say it like I am, although it's hard to understand.
I'm safe behind the music, and other cliches like that. It's hard to feel calm.

Maybe I don't want this relieved
It's hard enough in the way I dream
The outcome is just self-perceived
The conclusion is only fantasy

I'm retrospecting, looking at a 12 year old who was never really free. The nice young doctor took him for a walk, convinced him that he could change anything. How don't you think?

What if we all said what we were thinking? Would it be that hard?
Or maybe we could all wear t-shirts spelling out our deepest deepest darks. What would yours read?
