I used to have a mask on
It was like putting a smile
on a broken heart

I used to put on makeup
all the time
So that they wouldn't se
me

There was a time when I needed
that mask
That's the thing with masks
we grow apart

But why needed I one in the first
place
Why is it we have to hide from
one another

Now I can go with or with out
makeup
I'm confident that its enough just
being me

I belief a mask is when you try
to be someone else

Like an actor playing apart
in a play

Like an salesman whit a happy smile
and same sentence all the time

The little child they others wont speak
to
who comes home to her mother with
a smile on a face
But inside she's got a broken heart
