Masks

mask that I wear to cover up my darkness
last of my cares Imma cave into starless
nights starving light Imma lie with the heartless
Right out of mind I buy what I bargain for

what are these emotions, can't give back 'em, no
thorns in the roses, yeah I know how that go
lost in the concept of self
cost of a soul that I'm willing to sell

-

I'm flying away, rising above
to change it all for love
seated in silence, eyelids closed
see what I am, not what I know

-

mask that I wear to cover up depression
Lie all the time like pain is a weapon
I who am blind to what lies inside me
arrogant pride I let divide me

Glass house Imma lash out on my demons
blast a new route to explore what this means and
sitting here thinking back, wishing that the feeling won't last
its a trap keep me all up in the past

-

I'm flying away, rising above
to change it all for love
seated in silence, eyelids closed
see what I am, not what I know

-

mask that I wear to cover up my weakness
I cannot cry but I know how to bleed and
where do I go from here
when nothing is ever clear, run it run it

Never going quit on my dream shit
Imma keep it clean got my reasons
Topple beams got my energy peaked
piece of me bleak history to set the scene
I hope you feel me now

-

I'm flying away, rising above
to change it all for love
seated in silence, eyelids closed
see what I am, not what I know
