YET ANOTHER ENCORE
I look at you all but you don't know how I'm feeling
Because your eyes ears and minds are asleep
I pass by you all with an expression not believing
But your eyes ears and minds are still asleep
I try to smile through the tears that I'm crying
But your eyes ears and minds are still asleep
At times when I'm alone I feel like I'm dying
But your eyes ears and minds are still asleep
My heart and soul feels like their bleeding
While your eyes ears and minds are still asleep
And though I fit in it's not the real me that your seeing
While your eyes ears and minds are still asleep
I can't say why but it hurts not to be part of you
And at times I feel like a ghost you can see through
I would ask for your help but I don't want to be a burden
So for now I'll take the applause under stage lights before
Hiding my pain behind the stage curtain
