Foolish heart
Looks like we're here again
Same old game of plastic smile
Don't let anybody in
Hiding my heartache
Will this glass house break
How much will they take
Before I'm empty
Do I let it show?
Does anybody know?

CHORUS:
But you see the real me
Hiding in my skin
Broken from within
Reveal me completely
I'm loosening my grasp
No need to hold back my frailty
'Cause you see
The real me

Painted on
Life is behind a mask
Self-inflicted circus clown
I'm tired of the song and dance
Living a charade
Always on parade
What a mess I've made
Of my existance
But you love me even now
And still I see somehow

CHORUS:
That you see the real me
Hiding in my skin
Broken from within
Reveal me completely
I'm loosening my grasp
No need to hold back my frailty
'Cause you see
The real me

Shadows of shattered dreams
They've followed me
They've haunted me
But you've taken the
Broken pieces of my life
And helped me to believe

'Cause you see the real me
Hiding in my skin
Broken from within
Reveal me completely
I'm loosening my grasp
No need to hold back my frailty
Oh, 'cause you see
The real me
