I hide behind the curtain, I hide inside the gloom

I hide from other people, I hide from my social doom

If they really knew me, they would not let me in

If they really knew me, they would not accept where I've been

Inside, I am lonely, I need a friend

Inside, I am crying, I can not meet this empty end 

If I pull back the curtain, they will not like who I really am

If I pull back the curtain, I will be even lonelier then if I still stand behind my dam

So I hide behind my curtain, hiding from the world's judging whirl

So I hide behind my curtain, no one will ever know I am a wistful girl
