My Mask

 

Patch myself up, the tears smear the paint before it can dry,

paint over it again, I'll give it another try.

My mask is shattering, breaking,

but it has to hold, no matter how much I'm aching.

I can't break, they're all watching,

I can't breaking, even though I'm just a human being.

Screams for sanity are louder, I have to hold on tighter,

Screams are heard, life is brighter.

Shoved back into darkness , still can't break,

just ignore all the pain, just don't break.

Don't break yet, don't break here....

my mask will hold.....
