I spent so much time trying to please you,
Trying to make you happy.
But nothing I do is working.
I wont do this anymore.
You tell me,
I'm nothing.
No one,
Will love me.
But guess what.
You can't break me.
You can't tear me down.
I am stronger,
Without you now.

Tragedy follows her everywhere.
Everyone she loves keeps leaving.
Brokenhearted and bleeding,
She somehow keeps moving on.

The world she knows turns their backs on her.
Made to be alone.
Never go home.

The mighty heroes fall from grace.
The day they told her to walk away.
She is someone not worthy to be saved.
But she still held no blame.

Seven years passed and no anger controlled her.
At the end of her road,
She dreams of her home.

Just wants to go home,
And feel the love she used to know.
But she can't go home.
Forever alone.

With her final breath she forgives,
The sins of the others.
Never to hear the sound of their voice,
Not that she was given the choice.
But when she goes, she goes in peace.
Knowing she is going home.

She puts on the mask of a happy daughter.
Her friends are jealous of her life.
No one knows that she’s alone because her parents are never home.
How long until she breaks under the pressure?
How long until the feeling of unloved takes her life?

She wears a mask like her favorite superheroes.
Trying to hide behind that sweet smile.
But inside a war is raging.
Inside her heart is breaking.
Inside the truth screams out.

He wakes up and the mask comes on.
Hiding the pain of watching his sick mother dying.
No one knows that their losing everything they have.
How long until he’s alone on the streets?
How long until he steals or dies, because he has no home?

He covers up the pain with his attitude.
Pretending that he owns the world.
But inside a war is raging.
Inside his heart is breaking.
Inside the truth screams out.

Acceptance is all they wanted.
Unconditional love from someone.
Never got that kind of feeling at home.
They might as well be alone.

We all wear a shape of a mask.
Whether it’s every day or occasionally.
It’s hard to keep your heart wide open.
For the fear they might not like what they see.
