I Promise There's More
You've known me for so long
But you don't know the real me.
You think I'm too quiet
or simple, or boring.
But I promise there's more.
I wish I could show you.
But I'm hiding behind this curtain
One that I can't ignore.
I really like concerts
and screaming and yelling.
I just have this curtain
That hides that from you.
I want to be loud
and crazy and exciting.
I want you to like me
and be my friend and hang out with me.
But you don't know the real me.
You only see what's in front of this curtain
And you don't care to dig deeper.
But I promise there's more.
If you stick with me I'll show you.
I can open these curtains.
I can show you the real me.
But you have to be willing
To try and to listen.
I'll try my hardest
To open these curtains.
I want you to see me
I want you to know me.
But you have to do your part
To help with these curtains.
Because I promise there's more.
There will always be more.
