Masks

Empty and broken

Our sins are unspoken

We're crying inside

But outside we lie

 

They struggle to open

The doors that we close

The keys are well hidden

So nobody knows

 

Behind these masks we hide

Trying to disguise

The pain that we feel

Playing these parts

Becomes so easy

It almost feels real

 

Don't wanna let them down

Hide behind our crown

Just keep smiling

Won’t Let them see

The real me

Its just the fake that they want

 

So it's behind a mask that I hide

And I try to disguise the pain that feel

I play all the parts so easily

It almost feels real

 

 
I don't even know who I am anymore
