Lyrics: Thomas-Louis Novillo

I look around, see the lights on me,
And faces in the crowd
But I’m just a kid on a grown-up scene,
Trying to be who they wanna see.
They cheer my name, they love the show
But the real me they never know
They play my songs, say my name,
But all alone, I feel the same,
Mirror shows a stranger’s face,
And, it’s part of the game we play.
They love my look, they love my sound,
But they’ve no idea of who i am
Am I just a picture on the wall?
Is it really me or not at all?
Got a million eyes
But I still feel blind
Am I just a picture on the wall?
Caught in the thrill, I might just fall
I’m feeling blind,
I’m feeling small
I sing the words, they sing back,
Do they see underneath the act?
Behind the smile, a voice cracks,
In my crowded room, I fade to black.
They stand so close, I feel so far
They see my face but not my scars
I got the fame, but I’m losing track,
Of who I was, and where I’m at,
It’s such a weight, to bear a mask,
How I feel, they never ask!
They cheer my name, they love the show
They stand close, I feel so far
Is this really me or not at all?
I’m feeling blind, I’m feeling small,
Caught in the thrill, I might just fall
Am I just a picture on the wall?
I’ll sing my song, I’ll play my part,
But deep inside, I guard my heart,
Before the light, before you all ,
I’m just a picture on the wall.
Maybe someday I’ll break it through,
Find the me they never knew,
If I fall and disappear,
Would they know I was here Is
This really me or not at all?
Caught in the thrill, it all feels wrong
I’m so blind, now I fall!
Am I just a picture on the wall?
Is this really me or not at all?
Got a million eyes,
But still feel blind,
Is this me or not at all?
Someday I’ll stand and show it all
I’m more than a picture on the wall
