Why the hell do I feel this way?
I can't pretend nothing is wrong
I have kept it quiet
Beneath my mask is pain
I have ignored it for so long
That mask is breaking
Soon my misery will show
People think they know me
But do they really?
If they really knew me wouldn't they see the agony?
My secrets have never seen the light
They have never left me
I must keep that mask
It is all i'v got
What would I do without it
Where would I go from there
No one to talk to
No one who could ever understand
What would happen if my mask were to slip
I would be screwed
No one needs to know what I have kept inside
It's none of their buissness and not their problem
It is mine and I must deal with it
Once my mask breaks
I don't know what i would do
It's held me up for so long
What if without it i fall down?
