Strange (Not All Alone)

Red eyes really burn

lying, I'm saying it's okay

I'm telling myself to stop

but there's no way

I'd rather not look in the mirror

I'd rather not hear my voice

I'd rather not cry

not that I have much of a choice

No more staring if I stay locked up

but there's no way

My room is such a sad, sad place

I can't stay

It's okay, turn your head in shame

if I'm strange, I know already

If you can't help to look

maybe someone will sympathise with me

I pray not to be

to not be alone, no one is alone

to believe, if I could believe

that all along, I'm not alone

With red, really red eyes

with pale as hell skin

your crying, asking

why is this the world you're in?

Shaking, shaking, hiding 

what is there to hide, I know

the tears that fall down, down, down?

No, no, no don't

No more hiding

show everyone your face

you are beautiful, trust me

why would you be a disgrace?

If they looked down on you

it's okay

If they hate you or not

don't run away

I pray that you'll see

you're not all alone, no one's alone

If you could believe

that all along, you weren't alone

Because we are strange

because we aren't the same

looking at us, at all of us

why are you a shame?

Look at the mirror 

no matter what you look like, it's okay

step outside, this is your world

they won't look away

I pray 

we aren't all alone, no one's alone

I believe, that we believe

all along we aren't and won't be alone
