[Verse] I wear my armor in the daylight glare Smile like I don’t have a single care But inside the cracks are starting to grow A fragile soul that no one will know [Verse 2] The crowd’s a sea of masks and charades Every handshake feels like a blade I hold my tongue when I want to scream Living their lie Chasing my dream [Chorus] Thick skin but it’s paper thin At night the shadows pull me in I bottle it up Let the pressure rise Strong for the world Breaking inside [Verse 3] I see their smiles But they don’t see me A ghost in a world where I can't be free I’m their anchor Their rock Their guide But who holds me when I collide? [Bridge] Mirror whispers “Just hold on” But every battle feels so long I want to let go Let the tears run wild But I’ve been strong since I was a child [Chorus] Thick skin but it’s paper thin At night the shadows pull me in I bottle it up Let the pressure rise Strong for the world Breaking inside
