They tell me to walk a line so thin To wear a mask and let them in But I am tired of the great charade Of playing roles that someone made It's so hard to be the other guy To chase the clouds in someone’s sky But here I stand Just being me It’s the only way to be truly free They said “Fit in Don’t stand apart” But it’s a cage around my heart The weight of masks It drags me down Yet my true face won’t let me drown It's so hard to be the other guy To chase the clouds in someone’s sky But here I stand Just being me It’s the only way to be truly free The mirror whispers “You’re enough” Life’s not about the shiny stuff Why waste the energy to pretend When being real will always mend It's so hard to be the other guy To chase the clouds in someone’s sky But here I stand Just being me It’s the only way to be truly free
