THE ONE BEHIND THE MASK(WICKEDJ98 and Hydrodgones lyrics, this is the story from Wickedj's eyes)
________________________________________
I wear a mask of crimson red,
With hues of blue around the eyes.
There is a face I hide away from view,
A side of me that no one knows.

Keeping to shadows is all I know,
It's how I cope when feeling short.
Still I'm suffocating, struggling to breathe,
Who will be there to care just enough when things get tough?

Please don't stand there and tell me you care,
You'll never understand what I've been through.
I don't need your sympathy vote,
Just someone there who can relate.
If you can't, just shut the fuck up!
Cause I ain't getting out of jail anytime soon.
I'm looking for a being that will accept thy broken self,
offer a smile that's warm, not faking concern.
It'll be in your eyes and all over your smile.

Sure, I can be bitchy like you sometimes,
That's what you'll get from me all day long.
If you decide you can't treat me right,
I'm self taught remember, and I know how to fight.
I wasn't raised right, I learned how to survive,
On the streets it's tough staying on yer feet.
I know my friends, those who stick with me indeed,
And help me carry the load whenever in need.

Still, This mask won't break,
It won't leave my face,
As sadness consumes me,
At every turn.
Forever I'm hiding,
Away from the worlds view,
Masking the colors,
Of crimson red, blue.

This facade is slipping,
it's cracked and worn..
Though they are not on the outside,
the cracks you will see, are underneath
when you look at me.

When I need reassurance, loving, and tender,
the one I can turn to,
Who will it be?
The one to show me they care,
to protect me when everything falls.
Could it be you,
the one to silence my screams?
My rock upon which I build many things.
