"who are you?" official release
by i:on

# 988 - i want you to be here

lyrics:
who are you when you close your door?
do you show the world who you really are?
or do you hide behind your walls
you've grown to find so comfortable?

i watched her struggling
weighed down by yet another death
she tried to act like nothing's wrong
but i saw all of it
i watched him struggling
cut up by how his lover left
he found another yet
but that shit still had him fucked up
and i watched them go through hell
in the autumn
everyone loved him
but he fuckin shot himself
in the chest
i can't even imagine
the pain he was going through
to go out like that

and i've watched all of them keep it in

who are you when you close your door?
do you show the world who you really are?
or do you hide behind your walls
you've grown to find so comfortable?

it's hard to face the weight of all the hurt
that leaves us wondering if this is worth
another friend, another shitty end
another story cut before it finishes
i wish that i could take everything they feel
and put it all on me
but i'd just be another short book
in this fucked up story

who are we when we close our doors?
can we show the world who we really are?
or will we hide behind the walls
we grow to find so comfortable?

who are you, who are you
when you close the door?
who are you, who are you?
who are you when you close the door?

who are you?

for my star.

[LYRICS]
[THE HOST]:
I've been recordin' this bullshit for ion know HOW LONG!
Now I ask that you'll not only
hear my words, but you hear
my soul,
YOU KNOW WHO THIS IS FOR!
HIT IT! CMON!

A star in
A star in
Heaven

Oh you know you've been so hard to find
I've tried, I've tried, I've tried
[Aww sookie sookie now]
Every time that I now wake and lie
(Ooh)
(That I wake and lie baby)
I've cried, I've cried, I've cried
(Cry x6)

I've tried and cried and made myself sick,
I have waited for the clouds to fade and they don't move quick,
I have turned to him and realized where I am not wanted,
I have realized that I'm way too fuckin' optimistic
And what I believe is shit.

I shook a eight ball yesterday and it told me to keep lookin'.
It told me I'm mostly likely to find a big shootin' star,
The one I'd recognize from afar,
And when I see it's shine it'll be holding 
my heart. OH NO!

Mama didn't raise me to be this way!
She told me to erase the shadows behind me,
So disappointed and so afraid.
my actions have been so enlightening.
I'll never get to see you grow, I say,
Surpassing the limits that felt so binding.
Our journey is now in terror and rage,
But I know that's not the ending we're writing..

Oh..
You are a star in heaven,
You are a star in heaven,
That I can't reach x2


Oh you know you've been so hard to find
I've tried, I've tried, I've tried
Every time that I now wake and lie
(Ooh)
(That I wake and lie baby)
I've cried, I've cried, I've cried
(Cry x6)

A star in
A star in
Heaven
That I can't reach x2

Oh,
Who are we??
What are we??
Where are we going??
Is this love or something above??
What are we showin?
What are we showin??

Who are we??
What are we??
Where are we going??
(Not separate ways)
Is this love or something above???
What are we showin?
What are we showin???
(Why can't you stay)

Ooh
A star,
Ooh..
A star in heaven..

[Layered parts]
(Music..)

[THE HOST]:
