Behind My Mask
Behind my mask I hide
far from eveythig
just out of judgement's reach
just out of presure's sight
jus out of pain's grasp
just out of stress's glimps
Behid my mask I hide
keeping hiddden
my opinion and brutal honesty
my temper and tears
my breakdowns and fears
my frustration and sorrows
Behind my mask I hide
for a reason
so they see the happy
so they see the positive
so they see the strength
so they don't suspect
Behind my mask I stay
just out of reach
to keep them happy
to keep my sanity
to keep away questions
to keep the image
Behind my mask I stay
