The girl behind the filter
She wears it like a mask
Thats the real question
If you truly must ask
Whose that behind the filter
And why she's wearing a mask

Some days she is so alone
Thoughts completely shattered to the bone
An empty mind filled with grey
The stormy thoughts come to play

The filter is a mask you see
Allowing others to see she's happy

Oh how she wants the happiness to stay
And the stormy thoughts to push away
Oh how she wants to help everyone
She thinks others deserve the sun

So a filter chosen so blatantly bright
When she'd much rather hide in the dead of night
Other girls so beautiful, loud, and resilient
The girl behind the filter wishes to be brilliant
