Pretty Monster

I wear such a pretty mask But I'm a monster deep inside If you only, only ask I'll lift, lift, set it aside I trust you, dear, With all my heart Hold my darkness near This is where we start Dig your fingers deep, Dig into my soul What you find, you can keep I don't want to be whole So, when you depart Leave nothing behind But my empty heart And tears I can't find
