Traps and Cracks
She slips through the cracks
Scratched into their masks
She claws at the walls
As she slowly falls
Into the poison addiction
Cruelty her crucifixion
She sobs a story through her lips
The tale of the marking on her hips
The scars easier to hide
Then the ones inside
A blade so nastily behind a smile
To drop on the ones so vile
On her toes, as she walks
While nobody sees the lies she talks
And the corners start to slip
And the falseness goes to kip
The mask falls off
Finally it's doff
Stops the masquerade
Because the mask did betray
And she fell inside
The mask she used to use to hide
Scratched into their masks
She claws at the walls
As she slowly falls
Into the poison addiction
Cruelty her crucifixion
She sobs a story through her lips
The tale of the marking on her hips
The scars easier to hide
Then the ones inside
A blade so nastily behind a smile
To drop on the ones so vile
On her toes, as she walks
While nobody sees the lies she talks
And the corners start to slip
And the falseness goes to kip
The mask falls off
Finally it's doff
Stops the masquerade
Because the mask did betray
And she fell inside
The mask she used to use to hide
