Why?

Why do you feel so lonely?
Why do you feel so sad?
What is it that always make you mad?

If you don't mind me asking,
What do you got to hide?
Why is it hard to show what's inside?

What are you really afraid of?
Is it that you don't want to get hurt?
Are you trying your best to prevent yourself from being burnt?

It's time to say what's on your mind.
You can't continue to hide.
You can't keep everything bottled up inside.

Here's my question to you,
Why is it hard to say what you feel?
You should show the world that you are real.

Nothing is as perfect as it seems.
Just let go and be free.
Everything will be alright, you'll see.

It will be hard, I know,
But please expose all that is true,
We long to see the real you.
