The Mask
There's a mask I wear
Everywhere
Smile that never fades
Even though at the end of days
I'm lonely, lost, alone
I breakdown when no one knows
Behind these walls you'll never see
Because it's only me
Here
Feels like it'll always be just me here.
I always lose
Always
Lose
Whatever is closest to me.
My caring, love, affection
Never matters enough
For what I love to stay
They all just go away
Whether on purpose or in death
It just always takes my breath
Away. But you would never know
How it feels to me when they go
Because there's this mask that I wear
Everywhere
I only breakdown when I'm alone
