Take The Mask Off

I have been showing you the version That I thought you needed to see Smiling through the hard parts Performing who I thought I should be But somewhere in the editing I lost the real me And the person standing in front of you Was never really free Chorus Take the mask off Let me see the real you Take the mask off I am not going anywhere I promise you You do not have to be perfect here You do not have to have it all together This is the one place in the world Where real is better Take the mask off And let me love what I find Verse 2 You have been holding it together For everyone else for so long You forgot what it feels like To just belong Not to a role not to a title Just to this Just to me Just to the love that is waiting When you let yourself be free Chorus Take the mask off Let me see the real you Take the mask off I am not going anywhere I promise you You do not have to be perfect here You do not have to have it all together This is the one place in the world Where real is better Take the mask off And let me love what I find Bridge I fell in love with a person Not a performance I stayed for the real thing Not the version you rehearsed So bring me what is broken Bring me what is scared Bring me what you have been hiding I will still be right here Outro Take the mask off I am right here Take the mask off I am not going anywhere And most important, remember you are extraordinary.
