This lock never opens
And this key never fits.
This secret’s left unspoken
Some things I can’t admit.

Like how I feel so lonely
When I’m walking in a crowd.
All I’ve ever wanted, only
Was for you to be proud.


And I walk another step
Looking back at my regrets.
Hoping you could make me change my mind.
But this want is overrated
I’m just sick of feeling hated
In a world where everyone’s so unkind.

But I look at my reflection
She has nothing to say.
She’s not proud of where I’m going
Or what I’ve become today.
She faces me with graveness
And looks me in the eye
Tells me I got to change
But I find I can’t reply.

So I take on another challenge
As I walk out the door.
Pray that someone will find me
And know that I can be something more.

And then I stop in my footsteps
I’ve got no where to go.
It’s funny how I can be so clueless
And suddenly I know.

That the one thing I am missing
Something that I must do.
Cannot hide away, I know I must face the truth.
Life won’t get any easier
If you don’t even give a care.
It’s not only for you that life seems unfair.

So I look at my reflection
And I brave myself for her.
She’s the only one I’m scared of
Yet the one that I prefer.
And she faces me with graveness
And she looks me in the eye.
Tells me I got to change
From my life, from my lies.

And I look around and realize
I’m always left alone.
And these scars I’ve tried to swallow
With the pride I’ve never known
So I turn to her, and dry my eyes
And take off the ring and say goodbye
Thank God it’s me she has shown.

And I look at my reflection
She nods, and gives a smile.
I’ve never felt this welcome
In years, it’s been a while.
And she faces me with graveness
And she looks me in the eye.
Thanks to her, I can be happy again
Now I’m willing to try.
