Foolish heart    Looks like we're here again    Same old game of plastic smile    Don't let anybody in    Hiding my heartache    Will this glass house break    How much will they take    Before I'm empty    Do I let it show?    Does anybody know?       CHORUS:    But you see the real me    Hiding in my skin    Broken from within    Reveal me completely    I'm loosening my grasp    No need to hold back my frailty    'Cause you see    The real me       Painted on    Life is behind a mask    Self-inflicted circus clown    I'm tired of the song and dance    Living a charade    Always on parade    What a mess I've made    Of my existance    But you love me even now    And still I see somehow       CHORUS:    That you see the real me    Hiding in my skin    Broken from within    Reveal me completely    I'm loosening my grasp    No need to hold back my frailty    'Cause you see    The real me       Shadows of shattered dreams    They've followed me    They've haunted me    But you've taken the    Broken pieces of my life    And helped me to believe       'Cause you see the real me    Hiding in my skin    Broken from within    Reveal me completely    I'm loosening my grasp    No need to hold back my frailty    Oh, 'cause you see    The real me
