I need a mask
To hide the fears
Ensnaring my heart
I need a mask
To hide the feelings
I still have for you
I need a mask
To hide my anxieties
While talking to you again
I need a mask
To hide my frustrations
Over being not over you
I need a mask
To hide the chaos
That lingers in my broken solace
I need a mask
To hide the tears
And show you a false smile
I need a mask
To hide the screams
That I suppress in my lungs
I need a mask
To hide my weakness
So that you'll never see
I need a mask
To avoid my fears
Of seeing you happy
While I drown in my misery
I need a mask
To create a masterpiece
That fools me into thinking
I'm gonna be okay
I need a mask
To hide the fact
That until now
Nobody can replace you
I need a mask
To avoid confronting
These unavoidable emotions
Telling me that I still love you
I need a mask
To avoid everything about you
To keep my sanity in check
Even when insanity eats me away
I need a mask
To hide me from your world
So that someday
I may forget you
I need a mask
But which one should I wear
When I'm confronted with the truth
That you'll never come back to me?
