I Am a Mystery

When I was quite young, for a time I went through a stage where I was a real monster And then I realized that other people could see how hurt I was And I didn't want anyone to see that I was hurt So I just tried to be the opposite And it worked, people believed that I didn't care I am a mystery to you You don't understand the things I do Find me beneath the hollow tree Winding a string of uncertainty Somebody tell me where my mind is Cause I cannot express to you the crisis Something is in me like a virus Eating from inside until I'm lifeless How can you expect me not to take it Like that when that's exactly what you meant I was half-expecting you to fake it I guess we're both disappointed now The moon goes down without a sound My heart begins to dread I cannot explain to you the things inside my head, I'm restless I am a mystery to you You don't understand the things I do Find me beneath the hollow tree Winding a string of uncertainty I am a mystery to you You don't understand the things I do Find me beneath the hollow tree Winding a string of uncertainty I can read your mind because I have visions every night You try to get inside me but my aura won't allow it I'll run from you forever till there's nowhere left to hide The energies you're sending me I feel it isn't right Although others didn't understand me so well I was sitting there, my face must have been a mile long And she more or less criticized me for it She went as much as to say Ah, there's nothing wrong with you What are you looking so glum about And that made you feel worse That made me feel worse
