Face covered by mask
You cannot see me
For that is the way
I wish it to be
We all dance
‘Round and ‘round again
We do what we do
And wallow in our sin
Always with faces covered
As we dance at life’s ball
Were we all play
And chance the fall
Shrouded in lies
As we play our part
Leaving to chance
A broken heart
Not trusting to lose
Our personal space
We timidly remove our mask
And show our face
