I Hardly Know How To Be Myself

Go out and hear a band at some club downtown
 Walk home in the rain and let it soak me down
 Smile and shuffle past all the faces at the door
 I hardly know how to be myself anymore
 I wonder where you are, do I exist for you
 That pain that never quits, ever gets you too
 I think about my life and what it's headed for
 I hardly know how to be myself anymore
 I know how to chase the night away
 And show no feelings by the light of day
 I know how to keep it all intact
 Tears may fall, but there's no holding back
 And time runs by me like a river cold
 It sends a shiver way down in my soul
 I see my past just like a mask I wore
 I hardly know how to be myself anymore
 ♪
 I know how to face the night alone
 And keep my distance on the telephone
 I know how to get my crying done
 And tears may fall, but I don't show no one
 I go out and hear a band at some club on down the street
 I shake the hands of all the people that I meet
 I hope they find just what they're looking for
 I hardly know how to be myself anymore
 I hardly know how to be myself anymore
 I hardly know how to be myself
 I hardly know how to be myself anymore
