Hidden Thoughts
I was looking at the stars one night
and I saw one shining brightly..
I closed my eyes and made a wish that
my life would no longer fight me..
How can I hide these thoughts inside,
all these feelings of bad and good..
Why can't you love me for who I am,
why can't I be understood..
At night I dream someone chases me,
all this terror as I sleep..
When I awake I'm covered in sweat,
and soon I start to weap..
Won't someone help me, is anybody there,
all I really want is for you to care..
Another day has come and gone,
I'm lying here crying myself to sleep..
When my eyelids fall I'll dream of the day
these things will take a flying leap.
