I never really thought
That I’d ever be here
I never really thought
That this would go on for years
Do you know what it’s like
To be in this place
Where no on understands
Who you became
Are you afraid to share
Because you know you’re on trial
You’ll be judged unfairly
Because they never had your fight
Have you been so betrayed
That you no longer try
Have you lost what you believed in
And most your desire
I’ve been there now for far too long
I’ve lost so much trust, I continue to run
Well if I seem a bit faithless
It’s only because it’s been put to great test
Nobody left seems to get that I tried
I just need someone on my side
Are you still criticized
When you overachieve
Have your friend’s competitions
Brought you to your knees
Do some of your demons
Still arise time to time
Do you pay a high price
For drawing some lines
Have you gotten so good at fulfilling everyone’s needs
That they create expectations they can’t see
It’s going to happen some day
It’s going to happen some way
Have the flames of your passion
Flickered and gone
Did you find yourself wishing
You could be held all night long
Have the sum of your losses
Taken some of your might
Have you taken your true love
And kissed them goodbye
Well, if you want someone, I might be there
But give me some patience, I’ve been taught to beware
