untitled 2 (Revised Mix 3)

Verse 1:
Could you take off your beautiful? I wanna meet the real you
I fell in love with the you the world sees, but still don't know the side that feels true
If you show me your inner workings, babe, my secrets, I'll reveal too
I know there's more to you than meets the eye (than meets the eye)
The public loves to swim in the water, but most don't go beneath the surface
Since they're so afraid to drown, so they project on you this image of perfect
And I think you're perfect too, darlin', but I can also see you're hurtin'
Let me see what you hide deep inside

Hook:
Can I see the you no one else knows, the side that you hide for protection?
I know you're scared to reveal too much, probably think it'll lead to rejection
But I promise you're safe, I'll cherish the beauty behind the mask
Here's your space to breathe where we can take a peek through the glass

Verse 2:
I know why you've grown to be so guarded, the truth is written all over your face
Your heart's been broken by those who weren't there to take care of the place
They all promised you safety and warmth, yet never knew how to treat your soul with grace
I don't blame you for shieldin' the pieces of your heart still there (still there)
But I know that girl is still inside you somewhere, she just needs to be reminded
That there's someone out there who'll stand beside her, no matter how heavy her life gets
Who won't run from her pain, no, they'll stick with her beside it
(By your side) I'll always stand -- you don't have to be afraid, come take my hand

Hook:
And show me the you no one else knows, the side that you hide for protection
I know you're scared to reveal too much, probably think it'll lead to rejection
But I promise you're safe, I'll cherish the beauty behind the mask
Here's your space to breathe where we can take a peek through the glass
