I'm drawing another mask
One with the fakest smile
Trying to make this one
Convincing enough for me
Maybe then even I'll believe
That everything is completely fine
And that I'm not falling apart
Trying to keep it all together
My other masks have fallen
And shattered on the floor
But maybe this one's different
From all the ones before
I just don't want to answer
To all those people asking questions
Because I'm still trying to find
The answers to my own
I'm so confused
But when I look at you
I smile without reason
But that's only
Temporary
Because when you're not here
I start to have my doubts
I question
If we were
Really meant to be
This isn't so easy
All this time I've wanted
Everything you are
But I don't think I'm worth it
I'm covered in scars
How are we going to make this work
When I'm so imperfect
And doubt my worth
So I'll put my mask back
Until this one falls too
Because I can never hide
Anymore from you
And the truth is,
I don't really want to
I want you to know
That everything's not alright
I want someone to help me
Win this fight
