Jessica Bang Poet I do not know?

Behind the Scenes

Wear the mask that conceals your fate
And try to fit into lies that you adore
Adore with all your shredded heart
Read the map- it clearly states that
Everything you learned went out the door
With all the love that failed the audition

Action, camera, action!
I don't feel the need to waste more tape now

I try to love impurity
As much as I deny it
Deny it for
All the sins that wish
To stay with me

Do you know that mask doesn't fit your face, darling?
Did you know that your lies were caught on tape, darling?

Action, camera, action!
I don't feel the need to waste more tape now

I try to love impurity
As much as I deny it
Deny it for
All the sins that wish
To stay with me eternally

I try to love complexity
As much as I hate it
I hate it for 
All the things you told me
The things that had been already erased

I hate to admit this...
I hate to admit this...
I hate to admit this...
But it's me who hasn't been
Reading between the lines
