It is easy to be confident when you don’t know who you are
You hide behind a mask when your heart is bathed in scars
And you listen but you never speak your mind

It Is bizarre

Constantly fighting your own wars from afar
Your thoughts are in cages locked behind bars
With a hundred million people
Who don't know who they are
