I know…

I know

I know what it feels like
I know what it takes
I know deep inside you feel lost
A wall you have built
To let everyone out
Hoping that will make things better
Losing yourself within the doubt

When things start looking better
You sabotage your own results
Living a lie not in pleasure
You cry in bed at all costs

I know how you feel
I was there too
Not knowing who you are
Pretending to be two

Living in the dark
Not knowing where to go
Living a lie of happiness
When all you feel is alone

You don’t have to cry
You don’t have to feel alone
You don’t need to defy all the odds
You have to just let go

Let go of the sadness, of the anger and tears
Look deep inside yourself
And get rid of all your fears

Deep down there is a way
Even though you may not see
But everyone at one point feels alone
You just have to wake up and see
That although you do not want to hear it, see it or believe it
Family is always there
Because we care.

Take a moment to see who you are
Know that in the end you will go far
You have to have faith and see what we see
Because deep down inside you want to be free,
And the only way to do that is to be honest with yourself
remember that in the end, you can only change yourself.
