I mask my pain* with visions of happiness I mask my pain with lies I mask my pain because of fear I mask my pain because I'm afraid Afraid of rejection afraid you’ll stop caring I fear the worse I fear the day it all comes true My fears they over whelm me Fight my every move I push them back into the depths Into the darkness They find a way to surface Find away to gain strength I mask the fear and pain I mask my worse nightmare’s I hide in the light I Wear a mask that says I’m fine when in reality I’m hiding behind the **mask
