Do I dare even wear what I was thinkin' of My true colors bleeding on my sleeve? Do I chance the romance that I've been dreamin' of Instead of wishing for it quietly?
Always at a distance, I wish you'd safely stayed Despite my resistance, you sought me anyway
CHORUS: Gone are the days Of All that I was afraid of I've left behind the traces of who I've been No longer able to wrestle with this Angel And the Closer you get, I can let you love me
I had found it was easier to dance around The edges of who I could be If I chose to expose what grows deep down Would you still desire what you see?
No more self-rejection no longer paralyzed This holy perfection is me inside your eyes
CHORUS
Never mind this mirror hanging on the wall Cause I could not pretend to be the fairest of them all Took a hammer to the glass To shatter all the pieces, The pieces of my past
