Silence in my mind is spinning
Looking through the two-way mirror
Staring at the midnight sun
I lose myself outside of hearth and home
...
Smiling as the tears are falling
Never letting my act go
My mascara may be running
But you'll never see my eyes look low
...
Proud and lonely in my heart
Alive and dead in my soul
If I smile, is it genuine?
Do you think that you can know?
...
Do you think that you can understand?
Can you read me like a scroll?
Can you hear me screaming quietly?
Can you see my mind swirling?
...
Old and young in one body
Deep sea churning in my soul
Ancient fear and those newly won
Compete against the pull of the moon
...
My mind is out among the elements
A part of everything and of nothing
In a million directions I must go
If I am to find my soul flung about the midnight sky
...
Smiling as the tears are falling
Never letting my act go
My mascara may be running
But you'll never see my eyes look low
...
Proud and lonely in my heart
Alive and dead in my soul
If I smile, is it genuine?
Do you think that you can know?
