i stand underneath the sun

to warm up my skin.

to paint a brightness on my soul.

i hope the energy it gives me last.

until after i leave you.

i don't want my facade

to slip away.

i don't want you to notice

everything i hide from you.

i want you to see me as your shooting star.

even if i don't believe that wishes come true.

i need you to believe i'm your dream come true.

even if my mind is full of nightmares

if you don't see them,

i'll never confront my devil.

you can call me selfish

i know you're giving me all of you

while i'm hiding behind this beautiful mask

i can't allow you to see

the ugly me

the one that stole your dreams

since i have none for myself

the one that's stealing your energy

since i can not move by myself

the one that's stealing your breathing

since i can not breathe alone

yeah, i guess you can say

this is my truth untold.
