Nobody knows

Nobody knows the real me

Nobody gets to see what's inside

No-one understands the pain I see

Or all I have to leave behind

Nobody can see through my smile

Look me in the eyes and go past the lies

Nobody dreams I cry myself to sleep

And beat myself down so deep

Nobody knows how long ago I lost hope

How many times I had to held back my tears

Nobody knows how I strive for ways to cope

Dreaming someday I'll beat this fears

Nobody knows how I fear to let people down

And how I'm always on the edge of a meltdown

Nobody knows how often I pretend to be strong

Even though deep inside it feels so wrong

Nobody knows the thoughts that run through my head

And how I fight not to feel so sad

Nobody knows how I really feel

Or how I wish these dreams were real

Nobody is able to see the real me

And I don't think no-one will ever be

Nobody knows the real me

And no-one's to blame... except for me!
