A Stranger in me
Afraid to show just who I am
I hide me very deep
I cannot change what is so real
While in this darkened sleep
I've lived long in make believe
I don't know who I am
What you see is just a boy
Inside's a frightened man
Who I am I do not know
I have no shape or form
You reach out with tender hands
Helping me stay warm
You let me be, you show me love
You accept me as I am
Now I stand upon the rock
Instead of in quicksand
The phony me that I show
Causes me such pain
The real me I keep inside
It's really not the same
I will learn just who I am
In this I will succeed
Coming out into fresh air
My captive soul I'll free
