Take It From Me

Which face is my true face?
Or is it just masks,
Tell me oh my soul,
I have questions,to ask,

Is it the smile 
That's synonymous to my face
Or is it too  distant
Too far from all my ways.

Am I joyous or its just a mask,
A mask, a mask, a mask ,
Why did you ask,alas!
Why did you ask,alas!

So many a time I wear it,
It blends perfectly every time,
I feel I will be exposed,
If It falls anytime.

Let me be covered,
Let me in it hide,
This mask is my face,
Let me in it abide.
