Facing Reality

Sitting by yourself 
Wondering why
What does it all mean?

Keeping your head down
You won't stop hiding
You can't let anyone see
First you must find yourself
Alone you keep looking
I understand and feel for you
I had to find myself too

When you feel like you can't take it
Stay strong and don't give up
If you feel like your going to quit
You can never give in

Once you've made it 
Beyond the breaking point
There is no cover
Everyone can see
You must stay strong
And face reality
