Miss Conceal

I do everything not to feel.
This weight is way too real.
Too much I can't reveal.
Just call me Miss Conceal.

You may have seen me sitting quietly,
Or you may have seen me flash violently.
Most times I'm kind, soft spoken and sweet.
Others I'm searching for someone to defeat.
My love for family and friends,
Runs deep and it never ends.
If you hurt them I'm ready to fight.
You'll be my prey I'll hunt you all night.
I'm just as nice as I can be.
My smile I wear for all too see.

I do everything not to feel.
This weight is way too real.
Too much I can't reveal.
Just call me Miss Conceal.

Control is what I crave.
It's best if you behave.
Take my advice for your sake.
No one wants this demon to wake.
If you need help I'll lend a hand.
Hard times and struggles I understand.
I'll give you the shirt off my back,
Help you get your life back on track.
Take me for granted and you'll see,
How dark, cold and demented I can be.

I do everything not to feel.
This weight is way too real.
Too much I can't reveal.
Just call me Miss Conceal.
