The Real Me Lyrics
foolish heart looks like we're here again same old game of plastic smile
don't let anybody in
hiding my heartache
will this glass house break
how much will they take before I'm empty
do i let it show
does anybody know
but you see the real me
hiding in my skin
broken from within
unveil me completely
I'm loosening my grasp
there's no need to mask my frailty
cause you see the real me
painted on life is behind a mask
self inflicted circus clown
im tired of this song and dance
living a charade always on parade
what a mess I've made of my existence
but you love me even now
still I see you somehow
but you see the real me
hiding in my skin
broken from within
unveil me completely
I'm loosening my grasp
there's no need to mask my frailty
cause you see the real me
wonderful beautiful is what you see
when you look at me
you're turning the tattered fabric
of my life into a perfect tapestry
oh i just wanna be me
i wanna be me
you see the real me
hiding in my skin
broken from within
unveil me completely
I'm loosening my grasp
there's no need to mask my frailty
oh cause you see the real me
and you love me just as i am
wonderful beautiful is what you see
when you look at me
don't let anybody in
hiding my heartache
will this glass house break
how much will they take before I'm empty
do i let it show
does anybody know
hiding in my skin
broken from within
unveil me completely
I'm loosening my grasp
there's no need to mask my frailty
cause you see the real me
self inflicted circus clown
im tired of this song and dance
living a charade always on parade
what a mess I've made of my existence
but you love me even now
still I see you somehow
hiding in my skin
broken from within
unveil me completely
I'm loosening my grasp
there's no need to mask my frailty
cause you see the real me
when you look at me
you're turning the tattered fabric
of my life into a perfect tapestry
oh i just wanna be me
i wanna be me
hiding in my skin
broken from within
unveil me completely
I'm loosening my grasp
there's no need to mask my frailty
oh cause you see the real me
wonderful beautiful is what you see
when you look at me

yay i put the lyrics in sorry if they're wrong but i did the best i could!
anyway i think this song is talking about a girl and it's really hard for her she's going through a really hard time and is forced to fake it so no one can see her pain and god is the only one really that sees her for what she is and knows her pain
what does the line "self inflicted circus clown" mean?
I really just love this song.
Oh crap. The meaning got cut of... :(
self inflicted circus clown means she's putting on a mask, you know how circus clowns have that smile plastered on their face as part of their costume? it's like that, she's putting on a fake smile for the rest of the world but inside she's hurting...
love the song. it's amazing
