When you ask me Why I always wear that one colour I tell you it pleases me When you ask me Why I never laugh out loud I tell you it frightens me When you ask me Why I never let my hair down I tell you it troubles me When you ask me About all these little things I tell you what they mean But I don't tell you All the stories and words and struggles behind them What I tell you Is only a part of me What I tell you Doesn't even begin to scratch the surface

The Surface
When you ask me Why I always wear that one colour I tell you it pleases me When you ask me Why I never laugh out loud I tell you it frightens me When you ask me Why I never let my hair down I tell you it troubles me When you ask me About all these little things I tell you what they mean But I don't tell you All the stories and words and struggles behind them What I tell you Is only a part of me What I tell you Doesn't even begin to scratch the surface
