Inside
no one understands me i doubt they ever will
they cannot see inside and tell me how i feel
my head remains my prison dual windows to look out
you only see a mirror reflecting your own doubt
if you choose to weigh me to aide your peace of mind
and dress me in presumtions that justifies your find
then i will be that shadow that falls across your eye
as i bow before the judgement and gently pass you by
you cannot see intentions or buy them for there wealth
or balance indignations you first must judge yourself
if you want to know me ill tell you where to start
first you have to climb the stairway from my heart
but no one understands me i doubt they ever will
they cannot see inside and tell me how i feel
there is no way to read me or weigh me by my wealth
how can you think you know me i hardly know myself
