IF YOU FIND ONE DAY YOU LOOK INSIDE YOURSELF
IF YOU LOOK REAL CLOSE YOU MIGHT NOT LIKE WHAT YOU SEE
BUT IF YOU LOOK THEN DO SOMETHING ABOUT WHAT YOU SEE
THEN MAYBE YOU HAVE SAVED YOURSELF SOME MISERY
MISERY OH MISERY ON ME
ALWAYS DARK AND COLD INSIDE
TRYING FOREVER TRYING, INSIDE YOURSELF YOU HIDE
HIDING ALWAYS HIDING INSIDE
DARKNESS, STILL AND COLD
FOREVER INSIDE YOURSELF YOU FOLD
FOLDING ALWAYS FOLDING
NEVER LETTING GO
ALWAYS WILL YOU SAY, FOREVER I'LL NEVER KNOW
NEVER KNOWING ABOUT ONES OWN
NEVER KNOWING WHO YOU TRULY ARE
JUST SHIMMERING GLIMPSE OF HOPE, SO NEAR YET SO FAR
ON YOUR OWN AGAIN
NEVER FINDING HAPPINESS IN OTHERS COMPANY
LOOK INSIDE, AND THEN YOU'LL REALISE THAT'S NOT THE WAY TO BE
BE YOURSELF, INSIDE YOURSELF YOU'LL FIND THE HAPPINESS AND COMFORT OF BEING YOU
THEN AND ONLY THEN CAN YOU BE TO ONESELF REALLY TRUE
