Clay Aiken debuted his new CD on QVC Monday night and folks are buzzing that the song he performed, entitled ‘The Real Me', was pretty much a cry for help from the closet.
The lyrics:
Foolish heart looks like we're here again
Same old game of plastic smile
Don't let anybody in
Hiding my heartache, will this glass house break
How much will they take before I'm empty
Do I let it show, does anybody know?
[Chorus:]
But you see the real me
Hiding in my skin, broken from within
Unveil me completely
I'm loosening my grasp
There's no need to mask my frailty
Cause you see the real me
Painted on, life is behind a mask
Self-inflicted circus clown
I'm tired of the song and dance
Living a charade, always on parade…
The truth shall set you free! Watch the performance, AFTER THE JUMP…
