I am underneath this mask I've made Down below the smile shown World within is stony and dim Think you know how it feels to be alone? Take my place for a single day You will realize your life is sweet There's always effects from mistakes repeated You have a house to ease your feet. Breathe me slow, inhale my thoughts Only I could invade your mind Occupy another brain for a brief stay Enough time to leave battles fought behind. There is no escape from this pain Don't know  what to say when friends ask Continue to carry on like I'm okay Hiding beneath my delicate careful mask.

Mask
I am underneath this mask I've made Down below the smile shown World within is stony and dim Think you know how it feels to be alone? Take my place for a single day You will realize your life is sweet There's always effects from mistakes repeated You have a house to ease your feet. Breathe me slow, inhale my thoughts Only I could invade your mind Occupy another brain for a brief stay Enough time to leave battles fought behind. There is no escape from this pain Don't know  what to say when friends ask Continue to carry on like I'm okay Hiding beneath my delicate careful mask.
It's hard to be real when fake is all you know..
