Mask
We all wear masks and cover what’s within
We pretend we don’t care
We hide under our skin
Is it cause we are scared
For people to discover
All that we’ve been through
All we’ve tried to cover
But our past is our past
And our choices are our choices
And maybe it won’t last
If we hear some friendly voices
But we remain in fear of opinions that don’t matter
Because a mask can’t be removed if it’s stuck on for the better
