Story Behind The Song

I wrote this song when a friend of mine was going through a very difficult time in her life. She was feeling down and frustrated most of the time and I couldn't find a way to comfort her. We are both musicians so I figured the best gift to her was to write a song and out came this.

Song Description

The person is going through a difficult time. A bit of depression. Something is troubling and she doesn't want to speak of it. She tries to appear happy and content in front of everyone but behind closed doors she is tormented by her past and her current love cannot seem to break her from it.

Lyrics

I woke up this morning
Thinking what to wear
Don't know if I should be me
I'm a little scared

The truth hides deep inside
What am I to say?
The past is left behind
And I don't want to explain

I don't think you can see me
Believe when I say
One day I am restless
At night I'm awake

You never believe me
So it's hard to explain
My soul has been captured
I hide in my pain

And I'm no angel
I have two faces
I put one on for you
Put one on for me
These angels and demons won't set me free

What do you expect of me
To know who I am?
These scars run deep inside
They don't have an end

You know I have secrets
Yet you seem to deny
You know you can't change me
Won't put up a fight

Maybe when I'm ready
I'll say how I feel
Heaven cannot find me
I don't know what's real

We find our own pleasure
Keeping to ourselves
My mind is a maze
Pandora and hell

'Cos I'm no angel
I have two faces
I put one on for you
Put one on for me
These angels and demons won't set me free

Are you surprised
Of all my lies
I confuse myself
And I don't care to deny

That I'm no angel
I have two faces
I put one on for you
Put one on for me
These angels and demons won't set me free
