You wear your shield of armour
To cover your painful past
So many years of torment
Have formed a heart of glass
I’m not fooled by this facade
I can see your inner glow
Your sweet and playful spirit
That’s been too afraid to grow
There’s no need for you to hide
Behind your dark disguise
It’s time to come true
And embrace the inner you
Please set your pain free
Surrender your life of lies
Wash away the black paint
And reveal your pretty eyes
Step out on the big stage
Shine like the jewels inside
Soar like a golden phoenix
Reborn and fully alive
