Stone expression in a sea of emotion
Laugh maniacally when I get the notion
Show no fear, love, or hate
People only criticize
They never appreciate

Why are you emotionless
What are you thinking
You must be doped up or
You must have been drinking

They don't think there are storms in my head
Many many phrases that are better left unsaid

But that is my purpose
My reason for the mask
You tell me all I need to know
By the questions that you ask

I choose my burdens and carry them solely
I don't bother you because I care for you wholly

I don't need an extra shoulder
God gave me two
I cannot guarantee I'll always
Have you

So I bear my burdens and keep them locked away
A self-made unknown martyr
Already In an unmarked grave
