Lonely

Is everybody lonely?
Is everybody scared?
Is everybody worried
That no-one really cares?

See, I'm afraid to love but afraid to be alone
Still I wonder why my heart is always broke
What a way to live, let the fear take all control

Oh this ain't life, no
I'm not alive

Are we all the same
Looking for love, looking for love?
Are we all in chains
Trying to be enough, be enough?

I'm trying to write my perfect story
I'm working nights, I'm working days
To prove the world that I am worthy
Of being seen, of being praised

'Cause I'm afraid to show the people who I am
I'm not special, I'm just a simple, broken man
So I will hide my face with my picture-perfect mask

Oh this ain't life, no
It's just a lie

Are we all the same
Looking for love, looking for love?
Are we all in chains
Trying to be enough, be enough?

Woah, if I looked you in the eye
And showed the broken things inside
Would you run away?
Would you run away?
Woah, if you saw my darkest parts
The wicked things inside my heart
Would you run away?
Or are you the same?
