There's a reason why I say
The things I say
There's a reason why I act
And feel this way
​
Not one truth was ever free
To understand someone like me
You'd have to look beyond
What you thought you knew
​
There are things inside of me
That you can't see
And I swear to god
I wish you'd feel them too
​
Then perhaps you'd see one day
What it's really like to pray
And wish there's something left
That's still worth in you
​
This, my secret so profound
Buried deep inside the ground!
Why is there so much I hide?
Take a chance to look inside!
​
This is me, a reality
I cannot escape!
My heart, my life, my memories
They're all in my name!
​
The life that I've held in my hands
How could you ever understand?
The darkness that has grown inside me?
​
There are things inside of me
That need to be
Broken from the chains
That has become my life
​
There is darkness in a man
Who has brought by his own hand
A shattered memory of
The things that he's lived
​
Please tell me if you can't see
There is still a heart in me?
Take my hand, the tears I cry
Such a storm I cannot hide!
​
This is me, a reality
I cannot escape!
My heart, my life, my memories
They're all in my name!
​
I need to take you through the glass
So you might understand at last
All of the things that I've tried to say!
​
Take me!
​
I've always wanted to know
What it felt to be loved
By someone like you
​
I've always wanted to feel
That the life I had was real
That it could be true
​
But now it seems to obey nothing
That it all is just a dream
Something I cannot come to terms with
​
And now it seems to obey nothing
That it all was just a dream
Something I cannot come to terms with
​
I've always wanted to know
What it's like to taste life
Just the way you do

I've always wanted to feel
That the world to me was real
That love could be true

Cunctipotens genitor, deus
Christe eleison
Kyrie eleison
​
I have become someone
I had never thought
What did you all want from me?
What should I have done? ​
​
This is who I am
(take my hands and take my soul!)
Dreamer of the world
(there had always been much more!)
Child of shadow's eyes
(now you know what I've become!)
Cursed to shatter life!
​
This is me, my reality
I'll never escape!
My heart, my life, my memories
They're all in my name!
​
The words unspoken in night
The shadow who dreams of the light
The broken soul who wants to feel whole!

This is me!
