Mask

Well, I guess that I haven't been straight with you
But I don't think that I could be if I tried to
I've been wearing a mask so long that I would not know
What I would look like if I let my real face show

Sometimes I would like to scream in your face
While releasing 10 years of my bottled-up rage
Over work, school, broken love, and problems at home
But it all seems so pointless when I'm left alone

Because when I'm alone my fears get in my head
They say, "You're worthless, pathetic, wear this mask instead
You're a disgrace to everyone that you call your friends"
But I'll never wear that old mask again

Because I am clean, I am sober, my emotions are checked
I am happy, I just don't know how to show it
So when you see me on the side of the room
Know I am grateful just to be here with you
