Commercial Masks of the World

by KeyxMashingxParody   Jul 12, 2007


We wander lifelessly through the world,
Lying through our commercial mask.
Being someone we never were,
Always bringing up situations in the past.

We all want pity, attention, commercial,
To be noticed by those we don't know.
Sharing our masks to the world,
Never learning how to just say no.

Peer pressure, isn't real,
It's just all in our heads.
If someone said go jump off a cliff,
You know that you'd be dead.

How can we just flash our fake faces,
And trick people into doing stupid stuff.
Things that are meaningless,
To much is never enough!?

Such lies through our commercial masks,
Such stories I've heard through my years.
How come all of these stories I know of,
All ended in a hurt heart and tears.

We wander lifelessly through the world,
Lying through our commercial mask.
Being someone we never were,
Always bringing up situations in the past.
