My familiar stranger
They've told me to stay away
Because you'll only bring danger
That's what they say
I'll pretend
Pretend to follow their orders
But only because otherwise
They would never let me go
They made me the person
That I pretend to be
When you find me
The truth is what I'll let you see
You'll find a way
To take me from this danger
I hope you find it soon
Just take me away
My familiar stranger

The laughter dies down
As the smile turns into a frown
The tears
In the beginning fall slow
Becoming a river of sorrow
The facade is gone
The true person shown

A silent breeze
Sweeps through the trees
The stars align
They show me what is mine
And I hear the rustling leaves
Whisper to me
They know my future
They know my past
They tell me the truth of my present
Finally
Truth at last

— The End —
