To The Boy on The Stage

I Wish I Knew You

I look up through a fog, and imagine you are here.

I wonder if you ever wish you could just disappear.

I'm sure the nights are fun,

The fans and all the lights.

But what about the days?

When you've come down from the heights?

I want to ask about your life, and what made you this way.

I wonder what you'd really say, if between us it would stay.

I'm sure you have good stories,

The kind you love to tell.

But I'm sure you have dark ones too,

We've all seen a bit of Hell.

But mostly I wish I knew you, and what lies behind your eyes.

Just to look within and feel your soul, to see beyond the lies.

Because I'm sure you know how to fake a smile,

And I'm sure you could act all day.

But I'm sure you also need some time,

To close the facades away.

I Wish I Knew You...
