You ever looked at all the people

Who seem to know exactly how to be

You think, "They don′t need piles of prescriptionsTo function naturally"

Well, look again, and you might catch it

Just stay a minute more

There's this little moment after the sunny smile

As their eyes fall to the floor

And the truth starts peaking through

They′re a lot like me and you

They can fake a smile too

The anonymous ones

Never let you see the ache they carry

All of those anonymous ones

Who never name the quiet pain they bury

So they keep on keeping secrets that they think they have to hide

But what if everybody's secret is they have that secret side?

And to know they're somehow not alone

Well, that′s all they′re hoping for

What if they didn't have to stay

Anonymous anymore?

Spot the girl who stays in motion

She spins so fast so she won′t fall

She's built a wall with her achievements

To keep out the question

"Without it, is she worth anything at all?"

So nobody can know

Just what the cracks might show

How deep and dark they go

They are those anonymous ones

Stuck inside the perfect frame they′re faking

All of us anonymous ones

Who pick themselves apart 'til they start breaking

And we keep on keeping secrets that we think we have to hide

But what we really need is somebody to see that secret side

And to know we′re somehow not alone

Is all we're hoping for

And that we wouldn't have to be

Anonymous anymore

The parts we can′t tell, we carry them well

But that doesn′t mean they're not heavy

The parts we can′t tell, we carry them well

But that doesn't mean they′re not heavy

The anonymous one

Noticed by none

The parts we can't tell, we carry them well

But that doesn′t mean they're not heavy

The parts we can't tell

We carry them well

But that doesn′t mean they′re not heavy

The parts we can't tell

We carry them well

But that doesn′t mean they're not heavy

The anonymous ones

Might just need this moment to remind them

That there are more anonymous ones

They′re out there if you take the time to find them

Just to know we're somehow not alone

Isn′t that all we're ever really looking for?

Maybe we

We don't have to be

Anonymous anymore
