The truth

Sometimes i veil the scars upon my face, but then i find the makeup is a lonely hiding place
Sometimes i hide my insecurities, cause if you know what i really think,
I’m afraid you might agree, but

Tonight i’m telling you the truth, and tonight i’m giving you the chance
To see what’s hidden underneath so you can love me just the way i am

Sometimes i hide the darkness in my soul, because i fear that you’ll reject me if you know
It’s like i locked the door and lost the only key,
I long to know how much the truth can set me free

You might think my heart is brave, revealing all my shame
But more than brave, i’m weary and desperate for a change
The truth is, i don’t want to hide my weakness anymore
And i don’t want you to feel like you have to hide yours
