A mask i do wear
to hide the shame i cannot bear
the scars are on the inside
hidden well beneath my mask
Did you ever see the monster i kept deep within
did you ever understand what drove me to that end
Now the smile is plastered on my face, my laughter practiced
did you ever see such a beautiful lie upon someones face
And a lie it was for i hid beneath that mask
At home i would rush to my room
take out my blade and slice it through
as it went through my flesh
i began to relax and the monster that is me came out
i sliced till i was weak
looking into the mirror
what i saw make me scream
a creature born of hate and self-disgust looked back at me
looking down i was horrified at what id let myself become
a single tear feel down my cheek
i wish i wouldn't cry it made me look weak
yet could anyone love this creature?
