Lullaby

Sunday night has come again
 (And still I cannot sleep)
 Hidden lives have come to a head
 (No more secrets left to keep)
 And now that everything is gone
 (The morning sun seems bittersweet)
 Has the day begun already?
 And now ashamed of who I am
 I missed what everyone could see
 Always a fight for me to change
 Into the man you want me to be
 A better man that shares my name
 Can I look into his eyes and see a reflection of me?
 I try to make it through the day
 (Too confused to disbelieve)
 Did it used to be this way?
 (I try to remember speaking)
 But you I thought would understand
 (Appreciate my weekness)
 Tell me I can be a man
 And now ashamed of who I am
 I missed what everyone could see
 Always a fight for me to change
 Into the man you want me to be
 A better man that shares my name
 Can I look into his eyes and see a reflection of...
 What's left inside to see?
 These captured thoughts, surrounding jealousy
 No hope, do you believe?
 If left alone these words would bury me
 Still need to sing this boy to sleep
 In the stillness of his room
 Present a melody of peace
 Beckon dreams to follow soon
 But if there's no one left but him
 Then the curtain has been drawn
 A wasted life deserves no song
 And now ashamed of who I am
 I missed what everyone could see
 Always a fight for me to change
 Into the man you want me to be
 A better man that shares my name
 Can I look into his eyes and see a reflection of me?
