The Unmasking

I don't wanna hide behind a mask
, Created to shield, myself from rejection.
'Cuz now I know the truth.
That I became the thing I feared the most,
And shut myself out from the love that I craved,
In fear of losing it.
Now I just wanna shower it on, the ones I hold dear.
I'm sorry I stopped, but I was just scared
Of losing this wonderful gift.
But I'm stopping that now, I see I was wrong
. My fear of rejection, almost ruined this song.
Cuz' I just stopped lookin', Lord I failed to see,
The wonderful love you had waiting for me.
Just stumbling around, my vision impaired,
By childhood wounds that I couldn't repair.
They said I was good, I confused that with love.
God, I've been starving myself for so long,
Cuz' I just wanna love,
I wanna be loved.
I'm starting to really let myself be seen.
I look up to the stars, and I know I'm not far,
From the unselfish love that you taught me to see.
Lord show me how, to open my heart,
And feel the rejection, along with the love.
I know there's a lot, but I don't really care,
