Keep it together,
Hold it all within;
Don't let them see you cry,
Hide it beneath your skin.
You have to be strong,
And pretend that you're okay,
When you just want to break down,
And cry all of your emotions away.

But remember it's all okay,
You don't have to be afraid.
You are strong, you are fierce,
And no one can take it away!
You can hide away your feelings,
Try to make them go away,
But they resurface,
So it's best to work upon them,
And rest will happen itself,
With each new day!

I want to say words of encouragement;
I want to be able to forgive myself for my sins,
But my fears and trepidations continue to haunt me,
And I don't think I can win.
When can I be the real me?
I'm so sick of being superficial,
And my own twisted image is all I can see.
Please someone,
Help me.

Help me to rise out of the flames,
Like the phoenix does,
I want to able to live,
Not with sorrows,
But surrounded by happiness!

When the day is done,
And all I see is none.
You come out from nowhere,
Giving me a hint that somewhere,
There still lies hope.

I get the feeling,
That it's possible,
That I shouldn't hide,
I should just go ahead,
And shout it out,
Yeah! That'll be best!
It will be, right?
I'll take time,
But will find a way around.
And I know I will get back,
On the right track,
Right where I am supposed to be!

So here I am world,
Look at me.
I'm not bottled up,
But loud and free,
I'll stand before you,
With tears in my eyes,
Watching,
How my fear finally dies.
Please hear me,
Don't hide those thoughts now,
Let them show,
And let that bright smile of yours,
Finally glow.
