PEOPLE THINK I'M STRONG
BECAUSE OF ALL I'VE OVERCOME,
THEY THINK I ESCAPED THE DARKNESS,
AND NOW LIVE MY LIFE IN THE SUN.

BUT IT'S ALL JUST A SHOW
EXPERTLY PUT ON BY ME .
BECAUSE I JUST CAN'T
ALLOW THEM TO EVER SEE...

THAT I'M DROWNING,
AND I'M FIGHTING FOR AIR.
SO DON'T WAIT FOR ME IN THE SUN,
I'LL PROBABLY NEVER BE THERE.

I CAN'T LIVE MY LIFE IN THE LIGHT,
I'M STUCK UNDER THIS MOON.
HIDING IN THE NIGHT,
SCARED OF SHOWING OLD WOUNDS.
