Blinding every look inside
Misleading in every way I could
There was so much more to me
They just couldn’t see

Someone’s fantasie
That I had to make real
Playing a roll I didn’t want to play
Pretending to be someone I wasn’t

Afraid to step out of the picture
Scared of what I would look like
Without that mask
Fear of the unknown had the upper hand

A chime of light coming true
Reflecting on a tear
That showed itself
When the audience was gone

Living for the lights
That were shining in the dressing room
Although nothing fully covered the scare
They had printed on my face

The way she smiled at me
Was an internal dream
Showing she had seen me
Just by touching my hand

The words she whispered
The I love you for me
The big sister she finally was
Healing the scare from inside out
