STRIPPED DOWN

Do you know who you are?

When you've stripped down your clothes

Threw away your skin and broke your bones

When all you have left is your soul

Do you know who you are?

Do you know why you cry all the time?

Or why can't you shed a single tear

Or why is the world you fear

Do you know who you are inside?

Do you know when do you need someone

To hold you, to love you

When do you need someone to make you laugh

So much you forget how to take a breath

Do you know yourself?

Do you know what kind of medicine you take

To drown the pain and wash it away

What kind of demons are you running from

Do you know if they are just inside your head?

Or beside you in your bed?

Do you know who you are?

Do you know your soul inside and out?

Do you know your heart is all you've got?

At the end of the day

Do we really know who we are?
