Masks
So we may all wear different masks 
But I wear the same one
To hide the sorrow I feel
For my smile enlightens others
No one know the pain I feel because of this
The stupid permanent  mask

I don't show emotion like I should
For being judged is my fear
So be happy I've been told
But i wear a mask to cover my tears
Not known for sorrow but for happiness 
Thanks to this 
Stupid permanent mask

If I could express how I feel 
I think things would change 
But I can not
For my emotions 
Show not who i am
But who I want to be 
And sometimes I'm thankful 
For the mask 
some times it shows my emotion 
But for most of the time it does not
So to be happy is all I want 
And to get away from this 
Stupid permanent  mask
