From the time I awake, I feel the need to touch
I see the space between my mask and I is far too much
Apart from contemplating the true me
I time and watch the past of 'we'
My mask and I...
I put it on and smile but I know I live a lie...
A lie of happiness and laughter
Whilst it's sadness day by day as I get sadder
Sadder because of the mask I wear
Happiness I cannot bare
My naked face shows emotions
My mask shows rotations of all these emotions
I live a lie but am solitary
Express these emotions through poetry
With this thing on... My mask
I realise there's something for my life to see, I perceive a task
Yes, I live a lie
I laugh and yet I cry
Count yourself lucky 'cause you live, but I exist
I feel my life I should give and yet I resist
Please don't blame me 'cause I too wanna be like you and have a task
The only reason I possess my mask...
