The Mask
The MaskAll I want is to escape this place,
Because everyday here just breaks me more.
All I want is to live in peace,
And find an eternal, happy cure.
I wonder if I'll ever find it though,
A way to get out of this hole.
I feel I'm being buried alive,
And no one cares for my wounded soul.
All I want is peace and happiness,
For myself and everyone around.
Is it too much to wish for?
To wish for a sweet, genuine laughing sound?
The silence is just too loud,
The winds are just too cold.
Is this what I signed up for?
To be in this dark abyss, till I grow old?
Will anyone ever get me out?
Will someone even try to hear?
For all I want is to live in peace,
And find someone who really does care.
Sometimes the noises get too much,
And I just want to drown.
In the dark silence of the world unknown,
And throw away the unwanted frown.
I long for the sweet times.
Will they ever come back?
Well, that's a stupid question, I know.
But sometimes, it's good to get off the track.
So I close my eyes for a bit,
Picturing, the carefree, real smile.
Sighing, yet again, I put on the fake smile once more.
The mask I took off for just a little while...
