so many feelings bottled-up inside
thrown out to sea drifting away
hoping for someone to open it, to understand me
my mouth sewn shut unable to speak
maybe someone will find it and see
to feel what i feel and see what i think
.
unbareable at times, with no one to share
i gaze out the window into the sky
looking at nothing thru the clouds i stare
asking ... why me why ?
wanting to pull the mask off, to see my face bare
so afraid to say how i feel, so i just lie
.
i know lies do me or the ones i love no justice
i think bare it and grin, just say what you feel
when i open my mouth, nothing comes out
i think to myself i had a great spiel
if my voice could just speak to the ones i love
they'd know im in pain and that i need love
.
if only someone could open my bottle up
to read my heart, my true emotions
then they could feel what i feel
they could see what i think
who that person is, i dont know
i wont know until they try to open me up, inside
