Mask
I’m the girl
With the plastered on face
Never letting her feelings
Show through the mask
People think I’m miss perfect
Never a blemish to my record
If only they knew
Why I have to be perfect
I am the girl they want me to be
Because if they saw the real me
They wouldn’t accept
Who I really want to be
To those who look in
I seem to have the perfect life
To those that know
My life is anything but
Yet everyday
I put on the mask
And brave the world
A little less alive than before
With the plastered on face
Never letting her feelings
Show through the mask
People think I’m miss perfect
Never a blemish to my record
If only they knew
Why I have to be perfect
I am the girl they want me to be
Because if they saw the real me
They wouldn’t accept
Who I really want to be
To those who look in
I seem to have the perfect life
To those that know
My life is anything but
Yet everyday
I put on the mask
And brave the world
A little less alive than before
