Alone To Be Free

You think you know everything,
Well what do you know about me?
Do you only see what’s on the surface?
Or do your eyes go deep?

Can you really see right through my soul?
I doubt that you can,
I am concealed under a mask of everything
That is expected from me

You don’t see me for who I am
I don’t think you understand

I need to be who I truly am
I need to spread my wings and fly
I need my own space to breath
So just leave me now
Somewhere somehow
Alone to be free

You think I’m so perfect
In every single way
You believe I don’t need to work
To get all of those good grades

What if I told you all my imperfections?
What would you say then?
What if I said I spend free time studying?
And went to sleep at 10?

You don’t see me for who I am
I just wish you’d understand

I need to be who I truly am
I need to spread my wings and fly
I need my own space to breath
So just leave me now
Somewhere somehow
Alone to be free
