They see you on the surface
And they think they know you well
But the feelings on the inside
There’s no one you can tell
You get praise and fortune
They have lots to say
There seems so much to live for
Yet it's a struggle each day
Thoughts flourish through the mind
Like no one else could know
But when it’s time to come through
It seems there's none to show
You have a lot to do
Though there’s no desire
The stakes feel so high
But you no longer feel the fire
Holding back the tears
And they don’t have a clue
That these feelings inside
Plague me…I’m “you”
