Mascara

Im still looking for my hero
Still searching for the light
Trynna find the answers
Trynna end this usless fight
Im still looking in the mirror
And a disaster is what i see
The perfect stranger
Is what im trying to be
And yet im blind to see
What ive known for a while
No ones gonna know my story
When its hidden behind my smile
So sometimes when im alone
I let the tears flow down
For a single second
I see who i really am
But they dry as quick as the come
Are gone before Their seen
Before anyones notices
Where i have been
Touch up the make up
Clean those mascara lines
Black still streaming down my face
But i pretend their not mine
Push the pain back in
Because everything is gonna be okay
their too blind to see your tears
to blind to see your pain
The mascara runs to the pillow
as the screaming is on repeat
Nothing stops the black rivers
as you fall into your last sleep
Every tear fades to the next
Every cry is faded to the last
Dreaming keeps the Mascara running
as you re-live memories of the past
No matter how hard you try
You can never silence this black sea
Cause i have to let the tears escape
I have to set them free.
