Perfect Mask
I've gotta act it out
Like the perfect little girl
Everyone wants me to be
I've gotta act it out
Or I may loose my world
And everything in front of me
I've gotta act it out
Cause I can't afford a loss
Because I just barely have myself
I've gotta act it out
No matter what cost
There won't be any help
I've gotta act it out
Even if it hurts to smile
I just can't afford to miss a line
I've gotta act it out
Crying inside all the while
On the outside I look just fine
I've gotta act it out
Just like that perfect little girl
Everyone thinks I am going to be
I've gotta act it out
But then again this world
Maybe is not suitable to me
