I am misunderstood and gentle
I wonder how many worlds are out there
I hear the little voices in my head
I see a blank space
I want to travel this world we live in
I am misunderstood and gentle

I pretend to have empathy
I feel nothingness
I touch the pain
I worry if I'll be okay

I cry because I can't understand myself
I am misunderstood and gentle
