who I truly am
Let my skin peel away from me
To show my soul that lies inside
It’s all covered up in the lies and betrayal
No one has seen it ever before today

I look around the room wondering
Do I even dare try for a day
Just to let out the real me
The one who fights to free

My soul believes in right and wrong
But my mind has it all confused
With all my thoughts and lies
No one really knows what matters

Do you think you know me at all
Am I lying to you all right now
You’ll never really know
Cause I’ll never tell you if I am

Look me in the eyes today
tell how you feel about all this
Could you still be a friend to me
Or are you going to walk on by

Does this make things different
Maybe you think we can’t be friends
Who really knows anymore
But sometimes I don’t know if we are
