Looking at myself through their expectations,
 They wanted me to be 
The way they never could.  

And I cried alone because I felt
 That I would disappoint everyone, 
If I would follow my dreams.

Looking at my soul through their sick thinking,
 They just wanted to manipulate my thoughts.
 To them I seemed wicked, but they don't know,
 That I don't like to do just like the others did.

 Searching for the truth through lies,
 I can't believe all the words they are saying. 
Looking for me, they can't find my heart 
Through the pieces of their burned feelings.
