True Self

My darkest hours are spent inside my mind
Searching for the strength that I can't seem to find
It's holding me back from who I want to be
My true self is trapped where no one can see
Will I ever gain the courage to finally let go
Or make the decision to let other people know
That these feeling I have don't go away
No matter how much I hide them every day
I'm trying to find a way to let it all out
Even though my head is filled with doubt
I live for the day I become the real me
To be rid of this burden and finally set free
