Transparent I cling To things that are not real I tried to be an optimist But I forgot to think that way Take me somewhere Somewhere where I do not detest The things that I say in my head It always makes me mad Can't walk away from it I raise my voice but can't Say what I want you to know I take it back, the things I've said Every time I close my eyes Mother tell me why I'm like this And why I can't be myself or act The way that I pretend I am Take me somewhere Somewhere where I do not pretend To be a trace of someone else's hands I take it back, the things I've said It always makes me mad Can't walk away from it I raise my voice but can't Say what I want you to know I take it back, the things I've said
