[Verse 1]
In the midst of the crowd, I feel so alone
Pretending to be happy, but my heart is on its own
Searching for meaning behind every smile
Want a love that’s true, not just for a while

[Pre-Chorus]
I’m tired of pretending, want to be honest with me
Though I have many friends, I still feel lonely
Looking for a love that’s real, not just temporary

[Chorus]
This soul tries to understand
What am I running from, where do I stand
Avoiding the pressure, seeking peace
Want a love that’s pure, that will never cease

[instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Often I lie to myself, saying it’s all fine
Though my heart is aching, I draw the line
When will I feel true happiness?
Want a love that’s genuine, not just a guess

[Pre-Chorus]
I’m tired of pretending, want to be honest with me
Though I have many friends, I still feel lonely
Looking for a love that’s real, not just temporary

[Chorus]
This soul tries to understand
What am I running from, where do I stand
Avoiding the pressure, seeking peace
Want a love that’s pure, that will never cease

[instrumental]

[Bridge]
In a blink of an eye, I find a way
To say goodbye to all the pain, to all the dismay
Stitching up the wounds, confessing all the sins
When will I find a love that’s pure within?
Always ensuring, I’m not just temporary

[Outro]
Always ensuring
I’m not just temporary.
