I'm feeling oh so lonely

and just need to be alone.

Got a drive to conquer,

but I'll sleep instead.

I'm too afraid to dance

when I just need to move.

Don't ask me to speak,

cause I have too much to say.

I'll wear a frozen mask

right beside my heart of fire.

Yeah, it keeps me warm,

and it burns me alive.

I'll joke with hard logic,

I just don't follow its rules.

I'm always dreaming,

even when I can't fall asleep.

No reason to leave,

but I don't have the itch to stay.

Always hard to just say no

unless you're someone I know.

I see that sometimes I'm wrong,

and sometimes it's not worth being right.

I'm a second-rate romantic

believing in a first-rate love.

I'm quiet and shy

going crazy inside.

Please don't look at me,

but I need you to see me.

Can't say I understand

the paradox inside me.
