if i show you myself
would you stay?
because i showed a lot of people
but they went away
they left when they saw the real me
so i made two that you could see
i made myself happier, braver,
goodbye sadness, see you later
but no
that's not okay. you can't make sadness go away
it's still here along with the fear
i changed myself but it only broke me more
almost as it did when you walked out the door
but here i am. willing to let you in
so que the sound of a violin
this will be sad, heartbreaking at most
you will finally see the ghost
of my happiness, wasted away
much to your dismay
but here you stand
take my hand
then you will understand
why i am the way i am
