Each Mask She Wears
Each mask she wears dilutes her soul
They hide her sparkle and take her whole
The businesswoman who can never fail
The working mum whose façade is stale
The wife who must love, honour and obey
Those expectations fade her whole being away
That whole being feels like a distant star
One dimming speckle in a galaxy afar
A woman of all trades, and a master of none
With the weight of the world, fulfilling everyone
Every person in her life accepting each disguise
The more they want, the more she tries
The more she tries, the less she can feel
Until there will be nothing left to heal!
They hide her sparkle and take her whole

A woman of all trades, and a master of none
With the weight of the world, fulfilling everyone
Every person in her life accepting each disguise
The more they want, the more she tries
The more she tries, the less she can feel
Until there will be nothing left to heal!
