Well I guess I lied,
I don’t have much in common with the world outside.
No one really knows how much I have to hide.
With that I’m really very ugly deep inside,
I wish I was just like everybody.
Nothing changes, I wish I didn’t have to tell a lie today,
But I know no one could ever love me anyway,
And any good you get from me is just the more I pray.
I wish I was just like everybody.
I, I, I’m so afraid
I, I, I’m so afraid…
Well it seems,
I’m no longer a child and this is not a game.
I see so many suffering, in time to play
But underneath my eyes at least, I’m sick with shame,
I wish I was just like everybody.
So turn away, I wish I could’ve saved you
From the pain I bring.
But there’s no truth behind the pretty songs I sing,
I’m not sure I ever believed, anything.
I wish I was just like everybody.
I, I, I’m so afraid
I, I, I’m so afraid…
Well I guess I lied,
I wear the same old mask, as everyone outside .
And everybody knows about the shame I hide
That I’m really very ugly deep inside.
I’m so, afraid.
I’m so, afraid!
I’m so afraid…
I’m just like everybody.
