I wish I was who they saw

"Someone Important" is what they say

My friends only see one side of me

Some spiritual person who gives advice

I wish these skeletons were ripped out of the closet

If they knew what you knew

They wouldn't want anything to do with me

They would turn their head in disgust

Ok

Maybe they wouldn't but I wish they would

Because I can't even look at myself in the mirror without wanting to spit

I wish they saw more then the surface

Cause the higher you raise someone

The higher they can fall

I realize my voice carries farther then I want it to

I don't ever want to sound self righteous like I'm someone who matters

I'm just a filthy bag of bones full of filthy bones

I wish they could see more then the surface
