there s gotta be

 there's gotta be someone who'll see my real face
 behind all the masks i wear
 there's gotta be someone who'll see much more
 than just a pretty girl with blond hair
 
 there's gotta be someone who'll know how i feel
 even when i keep it deep down inside
 there's gotta be someone who'll figure me out
 and learn all the things i try to hide
 
 i tend to say nothing at all
 when explaining seems useless and too complicated
 maybe i've never tried real hard to work things out
 i just turned my back on the things i hated
 
 you'd say i'm too weak - i say it hurts too much
 trying to live up to the world's expectations
 you'd call me a loser - i say you're wrong
 'cause i kept my head high through all my trials and tribulations
 
 i know a lot of things that i never talk about
 and they have no idea what thoughts run sometimes through my head
 if i speak up my mind we'll start to argue
 i'd rather remain silent and just smile instead
 
 why do they judge a book by its cover
 and do not bother to learn to read
 to your eyes the soul is invisible
 no one will notice when it starts to bleed
 
 but there's gotta be someone who just knows
 who i really am and what i got in store
 i want that someone in my life so bad, so desperately
 where is that someone that i'm waiting for
 
 you feel lonely when nobody understands you
 it doesn't matter how overcrowded your life is
 i pray for the day i meet my soul-mate
 as i believe that soul-mates do exist
