An endless crowd, a sea of eyes,
They'll stand by you, they're your disguise,

But you're alone in your unity, your impossible wall,
For when the going gets tough, it's a free-for-all,

And you can swear up and down what you have is real,
But you can't lie me about what you feel,

I see the cold sensation you just can't shake,
Keep fooling yourself, but your smiles are fake,

I'll be waiting here, in the wonderland snow,
It's a place very real, where the fake can't go,

Close your eyes for a moment, just peer through the fold,
To the world far beyond, where you can't grab hold,

Drop into my arms, give up on it all,
Take a breath, take a step, take a moment, and fall.
To those who pretend they are someone they're not.  We, the people you lie to, will wait until you're ready to be yourself.
