My Mask

When I lie back in bed at night
I think about my day.
Sometimes I will be happy,
But sometimes as I lay,

I realize my mask didnâ??t cover
Everything that should be hidden
And hope my friends will think,
â??Oh, she was just kidding.â??

My mask is there to cover
The sadness in my heart.
I used to be a happy person
Right from the start.

Things have changed my life,
And Iâ??m not who I used to be.
But, my friends need the person
That really is not me.
