In my room so small and gray
Hide my thoughts day by day
Out in the light they don't see
The truth I hold inside of me
Friends they laugh but don't know
The masks I wear, it starts to show
Family, doesn't know, how much I pretend
But my heart, is broken, without end
Shadows of me I can't release
In the dark is where I'm free
Who am I supposed to be?
When they don't see the real me?
In the silence, I find my voice
In the shadows, I make my choice
To be unseen, to be unknown
In this darkness, I feel at home
Every smile, every lie
A part of me they can't deny
But in the night, I let it go
The shadows of me, they start to grow
Shadows of me I can't release
In the dark is where I'm free
Who am I supposed to be?
When they don't see the real me?
In the silence, I find my voice
In the shadows, I make my choice
To be unseen, to be unknown
In this darkness, I feel at home
The shadows of me, they start to grow
Shadows of me I can't release
In the dark is where I'm free
Who am I supposed to be?
When they don't see the real me?
But now I step into the light
Leaving behind the endless night
No more shadows, I will rise
With open heart and open eyes
