• you look at me
    what do you see?
    do you really see me?
    or do you just see what you want to see?

    you talk to me
    what do you think?
    do you really understand all that you pretend to?
    or do you not look under the surface?

    i beak down to you
    are you really suprised?
    are you really shocked?
    are you really sad?

    i tell you i want an exit from this life
    are you scared?
    if you are
    is it for me?
    or for you?

    me the one who wants to die
    or
    you the one who hung out with the freaky emo kid?

    when you look at me
    what do you see?
    do you see the mask?
    or do you see me?

    the me who hurts
    hurts over nothing
    hurts over the past
    the past that i can't let go
    the past that i can barely remember

    or do you see the mask
    the mask i have worked my whole life to make
    but don't want to keep
    the mask that says
    "all is okay"
    even though its not

    do you see me?
    or do you just see what you want to see?
