[Verse 1]
Hiding your feelings and yourself inside
Because you're afraid to express them and lose your pride
But why try to be someone you're just not?
Why keep hiding, letting the real you rot?

[Verse 2]
Yes, you're afraid to get caught off guard
You don't know how they'll think, is he soft or hard?
But does it really matter, does it really bother you?
Be someone else, fool leading yourself onto a life that's not for you

[Outro]
Can't you act and be yourself?
Not another character in a hardcore handbook
Well, we don't need anymore great American heroes
But real people being themselves, not weirdos
