The Mask

Forgotten and alone, it's completely unfair. The things that I've hidden, they're everywhere. I see the laughing faces they won't seem to stop even when I fall to my knees, even when the tears finally drop. The pain inside just won't cease, what you can't see, you don't believe. When I show you my scars you don't understand. How could this be a human? You act like it was all planned. You scowl at me, like I did something wrong. You make me believe that I do not belong. If I told you that at night I always seem to cry? when I'm home alone, I only want to die? How could I tell you that this pain is slowly killing me? Like a disease it won't let me breathe. How could I tell you that my world has come apart? How could I tell you that it's tearing out my heart? This is the future I see when I try to take off the mask. This is what I believe when I try to let it all out.
