She paints her face like a porcelain doll
Goes out to the world and fools them all
If scars could tell the world her story
Her mind would be a novel series
But the chronicles are locked away
Along with her true identity
For how long can she dam the river
Tearing desperately at her eyes?
How long till the razor persuades her
To end the pain, let her veins run dry?
She's worn the mask for so very long
She's forgotten that she's beautiful
She's mortified to take down her front
But now time has passed and time has come
The walls come tumbling and the earth shakes
Hesitantly, she looks at her face
Big blue eyes that hide behind long hair
The girl smiles at her from the mirror
She stares at a stranger in the glass,
Her new best friend, she'll never go back
