Looking In lyrics

You look at me and see the girl

Who lives inside the golden world

But don't believe

That's all there is to see

You'll never know the real me

She smiles through a thousand tears

And harbors adolescent fears

She dreams of all

That she can never be

She wades in insecurity

And hides herself inside of me

Don't say she takes it all for granted

I'm well aware of all I have

Don't think that I am disenchanted

Please understand

It seems as though I've always been

Somebody outside looking in

Well here I am for all of them to bleed

But they can't take my heart from me

And they can't bring me to my knees

They'll never know the real me
