[Verse 1]
I hear the things you never say,
The words that hide behind your face.
Everybody's wearing masks,
But I can see the cracks.
I carry stories that aren't mine,
Feel every storm before it arrives.
Standing in a crowded room,
Yet somehow feel invisible too.
---
[Pre-Chorus]
I know your pain,
Before you speak.
But who will ever
Notice me?
---
[Chorus]
Behind my eyes,
A thousand worlds collide.
Everybody knows my kindness,
Nobody knows my mind.
I keep giving pieces of myself,
Trying to help somebody else.
Behind my eyes,
There's so much more than what I show.
Oh-oh...
Nobody knows.
---
[Post-Chorus]
Can you see me?
Can you hear me?
Oh-oh-oh...
Oh-oh-oh...
Beyond the version
Everybody knows.
---
[Verse 2]
I'm always searching for something real,
A connection I can actually feel.
Tired of conversations that stay on the surface,
When my heart is diving deeper.
I dream of futures that don't exist,
And hold on to things I somehow missed.
Living between what is and what could be,
Trying to find where I belong.
---
[Pre-Chorus]
I understand
Almost everyone.
But understanding myself
Feels impossible.
---
[Chorus]
Behind my eyes,
A thousand worlds collide.
Everybody knows my kindness,
Nobody knows my mind.
I keep giving pieces of myself,
Trying to help somebody else.
Behind my eyes,
There's so much more than what I show.
Oh-oh...
Nobody knows.
---
[Post-Chorus]
Can you see me?
Can you hear me?
Oh-oh-oh...
Oh-oh-oh...
Beyond the version
Everybody knows.
---
[Bridge]
Maybe that's why I disappear,
When the noise gets too loud.
Maybe that's why I need the silence,
To hear myself somehow.
(Ooh...)
Maybe I'm not meant to fit inside
The shapes they made for me.
Maybe being different
Is exactly who I'm meant to be.
---
[Final Chorus]
Behind my eyes,
A thousand worlds collide.
But maybe all this searching
Was never something I should hide.
I keep carrying light for everyone,
Even when my own feels gone.
Behind my eyes,
I'm finally learning who I am.
Oh-oh...
And that's enough.
---
[Final Post-Chorus]
Can you see me?
Can you hear me?
Oh-oh-oh...
Oh-oh-oh...
Beyond the version
Everybody knows.
Beyond the smile,
Beyond the walls.
There's a heart
That feels it all.
---
[Outro]
The world is loud.
But somewhere inside,
I can still hear
My own voice.
