The Mask Doesn'T Hide Your Scars'

I can't breathe when I think of you My heart skips a beat One then two... I think deeply. I mask myself Each and every day Hoping you won't see all of this pain that's inside of me I know that the mirror doesn't lie So I often avoid Looking myself directly in the eye I cannot stand another bad dream My heart was hurting But I didn't scream Will I ever wake from all of this Madness and chaos Chasing away what could be A life without evil Is what I want to see. I smile.
