Behind a Mask


You that hide behind a mask

No one tells, they won't ask

You that are broken on the inside

Put on a smile to your pain deny

 

You that are humble

Even when your world crumbles

A good man with a broken soul

Using memories to keep you whole

 

You that is sorrounded but feels alone

In this cruel world, you think you're on your own

Feeling that no action will be your redemption

Leaving your heart in a heap of tension

 

You that give your all without thought

In a web of heartbreak you are caught

You have a better future in store

You don't have to be sad anymore

 

The skies and stars shine upon you

You have your loved ones, if that's clue

You're not alone, you have many by your side

Your actions don't go unseen, you are our pride
