My mask is slowly crumbling To the faint philosophy of your dreams I cry with pain but hide my tears with a smile My soul bleeds ever so faintly with no sign of weakness I weaken by the day, die by the night I try to confess my sins but in the end it all falls away A gloomily fate rests in my palms with the knife in my heart As my life comes my mask will shred but hold with love But my mask can't hide my life anymore.

Mask
A sudden warmth runs slowly through, The moisture from the morning dew. A beautiful thought I must pursue. But, In the past I have tried to grasp, A pretty thought like dewy grass, and in the end, I hadn't one friend. Feelings, time could not mend. All because of my greedy ways, The pursuit of happiness in a dreamy daze. To avoid the pain I mustn't pursue, Happiness, love or the morning dew. So, Dare I pursue something as beautiful as you?

Do I pursue?
