I said "Leave me alone"
But I really want you to stay by my side
Wanting to feel you more.

I said "I'm fine"
Though I'm really not
While pretending I'm really just fine.

I said "I don't love you"
But when you look into my heart,
You'll see your name written all over it.

I said "I moved on"
Though I'm still under the shadows of my past
Not letting me move forward.

I said "I surely can do it"
But there are a lot of doubts and fear inside me
Putting my hopes down.

I said "I'm brave and strong"
Though I have never been that tough enough
Always being afraid of going beyond my comfort zone.

I said "I'm like an open book"
But the truth is I have never let anyone see the whole real me
Still hiding under my shell like a frightened turtle.

Sometimes, what I said is not what I really mean
Making others confused of my real thoughts and feelings.
