It hurts, the words, I know I cannot say
I hide inside, like there's no other way
Heart beats, words beat, fighting to be free
Silence deepens, it's suffocating me
Why do I have to hide the things I have inside
Why can I never let it all out?
It's not about you, it was never about me
So why can I never be free?
I don't want to be the person no one ever knows
If I have to hide myself, will I ever feel at home?
I am worth all of the heartache
That being real might bring
I want to dare to be
Me
I smile while I'm feeling so much pain
I fall so hard and get back up again
If you knew the truth that lives inside of me
Would you be true and stay right here with me?
Why do I have to hide the things I have inside
Why can I never let it all out?
It's not about you, it was never about me
So why can I never be free?
I don't want to be the person no one ever knows
If I have to hide myself, will I ever feel at home?
I am worth all of the heartache
That being real might bring
I want to dare to be
Me
Me
If I could let you in, would you see me as I am?
Could I show you all the pieces of me?
Would you love me if I were free?
I am worth all of the heartache
That being real might bring
I want to dare to be
Me
Me
