I'm all alone,
Or so it seems.
You can’t see through this mask?
How can you not?
You laugh
When you should cry,
Or cheer me up,
Why can’t you see through this mask?
No, I'm not crying.
Why did you turn away,
When you knew the truth?
Yes, I'm happy.
Can’t you see I'm lying?
Why can’t you see through this mask?
I love you,
But you don’t love me.
I'm okay with it.
Wait!
Why are you walking away?
Why can’t you see through this mask?
*I'm sad,
I'm tired,
I'm fine,
There’s nothing to worry about,
I can’t wait!*
Why can’t you see through this mask?
Why can’t you see throu---never mind.
I can see
That you just don’t care.
That you don’t want to care.
That you are incapable of caring
For others.
I guess I’ll leave now.
And never come back.
It’s just easier this way.
Hello darkness.
Hello pain.
I'm you new best friend.
Good-bye world.
