The mask that I embrace,
Is a smile that covers my face.
My whole life's been a lie,
Behind my laughter I cry.
I am useless, stupid, fat,
Very ugly and insulted at.
The pain inside the truth,
Is rotting away my youth.
I conceal my pain at a cost,
For everyday is a battle I've lost.
My tear stained face is hidden,
To show it's true form is forbidden.
But you just stole a chance to see,
Now I'm screaming don't look at me!
