The Mask I Wear
Folder:
My Life It's the mask I wear
, I fool everyone
, but myself
, but can't keep it much longer
, it's eating me from the inside out
, it feels like this monster is trying to get out of me
, but has no way out, people know but do they know the real me or the mask I wear everyday
, It feels like I can't breathe anymore
, I want to scream from the roof tops the truth
, but something inside of me says no
, they will never understand the real me
, The me i am proud of
, for they say they love God but what does that really mean
, they say they won't judge
, but see I can't live in fear anymore
, I have to let go the demons that taunt me every second of every minute of every hour of everyday
, but you see there's things that I can't say
, there's things I can't do out of fear that they will find out of this mask I wear everyday
, but who am I trying to runaway from me
, or them
, cause can't you see I'm afraid that if they find out the full truth they won't love me anymore
, It's the mask I wear
, I fool everyone
, but myself
""The rat race in this Life
Can sometimes be in strife
When others tell you what you must be
Disallowing individuality
If you're searching for truth
Be ready, for they'll refute!
of who you want to be
Making it murky for you to see
(When you want to be real...)
Learning to love yourself
Is such a great deal of help
Go look into the mirror
So it can all be clearer
"If I become someone else
It isn't me, nay, but less
If it's not in my heart
Definitely it's the wrong start"
~ It makes sense to be ~
...so just be...
...so just be...
~ It's inside me ~
~ All I need is to just be ~
~ All I want is to be me ~
(breath)
Then I'll feel so much relief"" - Bry
