IN YOUR MIND No one understands another's feelings
Or understand what's going on in their head.
No one can truly predict your day for you
Or say what you're dreaming when you're in bed.
I suppose what I'm trying to say
Is take each day as it comes to you.
Don't run or hide from your problems
Sort out each matter and think it through.
The strangeness of all your fantasies
The other life you lead inside.
Be normal and be who you are
These words are a matter of pride.
The things you think about privately
Like your opinions of other people.
The picture you create deep in your mind
And things that actually aren't real.
Think what you want and want what you think
Try to feel good about yourself.
Be you and people will love you
Don't try to be anyone else.
No one understands another's feelings
Or understands what's going on in their head.
No one can truly predict your day for you
Or say what you're dreaming when you're in bed.
