Walter Afanasieff - Looking In lyrics

[Verse 1] You look at me and see the girl Who lives inside the golden world But don't believe That's all there is to see You'll never know the real me [Verse 2] She smiles through a thousand tears And harbors adolescent fears She dreams of all That she can never be She wades in insecurity And hides herself inside of me [Verse 3] Don't say, "She takes it all for granted" I'm well aware of all I have Don't think that I am disenchanted Please understand [Verse 4] It seems as though I've always been Somebody outside looking in Well, here I am for all of them to bleed But they can't take my heart from me And they can't bring me to my knees They'll never know the real me
