| Things are not always what they appear to be
|
| Beneath the calm exterior
|
| There can be a soul on fire
|
| Truth is not always what the eyes can see
|
| The smile upon our faces
|
| Can disguise our pain and hide the traces
|
| Melts into the ground and disappears
|
| The one thing you thought was forever
|
| Slowly washed away by all the tears
|
| I gotta be true to myself
|
| Raise up your head now so the world can see
|
| You have the inner vision
|
| Though the fight is far from over
|
| You’ve got to battle with it endlessly
|
| Before life becomes a rumour
|
| A sudden risin' tide that pulls you under
|
| (repeat *, **)
|
| (True to myself)…
|
| (True to myself)…
|
| If I’m gonna make it come tomorrow
|
| (True to myself)
|
| Hallowed be the voice of constant sorrow
|
| (True to myself)
|
| Gotta climb the ladder if I’m able
|
| (True to myself)
|
| I can’t keep this shining light under the table, my love
|
| (True to myself)
|
| I wanna be, I gotta be true to myself, hey, hey…
|
| (True to myself) |
