The Mask I Wear

There's a side of me that im afraid to show if you see her face would you let me know all the scars on my skin are embedded deep within The shadows on my face I can not escape this place The fears and the doubts of everyone around, all the thoughts in my head that just drag me down. I cant just climb up and out of this hole, so if you see her face, could you let me know? I have tried for so long to see anew, but every time that I do, it appears to be gone. The longing for some peace and a smile on my face, but I cant calm my mind and empty the space. I wear a mask for all to see But what is real is hidden beneath My heart on my sleeve but I cover it up Just because I know that Im not enough Everyone keeps telling me the same thing That I'll feel better by the Spring But I know deep inside this feeling Is darker than it seems I dont want to feel happy I just want to feel And maybe these scars are proof of all I seal. I close my eyes and I see the light. but its just a reflection of what I don't believe, slipping through my fingertips everytime I have tried for so long to see anew, but every time that I do, it appears to be gone. The longing for some peace and a smile on my face, but I cant calm my mind and empty the space. I wear a mask for all to see But what is real is hidden beneath My heart on my sleeve but I cover it up Just because I know that Im not enough instrumental outro maybe one day the mask and the scars will fade away so I just fight to keep my demons at bay and then I can hope to smile again i wear a mask for all to see But what is real is hidden beneath My heart on my sleeve but I cover it up Just because I know that Im not enough
