The Anonymous Ones |
Ever look at all the people who seem to know exactly how to be? |
You think, «They don’t need piles of prescriptions to function naturally» |
Well, look again, and you might catch it |
Just stay a minute more |
There’s this little moment after the sunny smile |
As their eyes fall to the floor |
And the truth starts peeking through |
They’re a lot like me and you |
They can fake a smile, too |
The anonymous ones |
Never let you see the ache they carry |
All of those anonymous ones |
Who never name that quiet pain they bury |
So they keep on keeping secrets that they think they have to hide |
But what if everybody’s secret is they have that secret side? |
And to know they’re somehow not alone |
Well, that’s all they’re hoping for |
What if they didn’t have to stay |
Anonymous anymore? |
Spot the girl who stays in motion |
She spins so fast so she won’t fall |
She’s built a wall with her achievements |
To keep out the question |
«Without it, is she worth anything at all?» |
So nobody can know |
Just what the cracks might show |
How deep and dark they go |
There are those anonymous ones |
Stuck inside the perfect frame they’re faking |
All of us anonymous ones |
Who pick themselves apart 'til they start breaking |
And we keep on keeping secrets that we think we have to hide |
But what we really need is somebody to see that secret side |
And to know we’re somehow not alone is all we’re hoping for |
And that we wouldn’t have to be |
Anonymous anymore |
The parts we can’t tell, we carry them well |
But that doesn’t mean they’re not heavy |
The parts we can’t tell, we carry them well |
But that doesn’t mean they’re not heavy |
The anonymous one, noticed by none |
The parts we can’t tell, we carry them well |
But that doesn’t mean they’re not heavy |
The parts we can’t tell |
We carry them well |
But that doesn’t mean they’re not heavy |
The parts we can’t tell |
We carry them well |
But that doesn’t mean they’re not heavy |
The anonymous ones |
Might just need this moment to remind them |
That there are more anonymous ones |
They’re out there if you take the time to find them |
Just to know we’re somehow not alone |
Isn’t that all we’re ever really looking for? |
Maybe we, we don’t have to be |
Anonymous anymore |
