She prepares her kit To turn into someone else She's done this for years Not knowing how to be herself She smears her lips With a bright bold Mac Drawing an artificial smile Hoping she wont crack She grabs her eyeliner And traces her eyes As strokes of mascara Send lashes toward the sky She dips herself in powder And draws two circles for blush She irons her natural hair With every bristle and brush With this new mask on She could now face the world Yet I still wonder Will I ever meet the real side of this girl?

Masked Beauty.
She prepares her kit To turn into someone else She's done this for years Not knowing how to be herself She smears her lips With a bright bold Mac Drawing an artificial smile Hoping she wont crack She grabs her eyeliner And traces her eyes As strokes of mascara Send lashes toward the sky She dips herself in powder And draws two circles for blush She irons her natural hair With every bristle and brush With this new mask on She could now face the world Yet I still wonder Will I ever meet the real side of this girl?
