Out of the Shadows
Out of the shadows
Cast in the light
It seems to be
Only me
Out of the shadows
Cast in the light
For the world too see
I wonder why
You won't let me be me
I would rather be
In love with me
In secret
I never wanted to be
I'm not a poet you see
But in the shadows
I'm so alone
Why
For the world to see
Why
Humiliate me
A side glance there
In the shadows
It's just a fantasy
You only wrote
What the world wanted to see
Is it just fantasy
I'm not a poet you see
But in the shadows
I'm free to be me
Scared and shaking
It's so hard to write
It gives my pen such a fright
But out of the shadows
You said it's got to be
Because I'll show you
It's a fantasy
It's you, It's me
It'll never be we.
