Mask
by Kawika Malama
What's that? is there something bothering me?
Yes but this smile is all you'll see
Mask the pain Mask the hurt
Mask those feelings of no self worth
Mask it all Hide it away
Build it up til it explodes somedayI see. Is there something wrong with me?
No that's what I say and what you believe
Mask the tears Mask the frown
Mask those feelings of crumbling down
Mask it all Hide it away
Build it up til it explodes somedayThese masks these lies
These masks that soak up the tears we cry
Is it for your benefit or mine?
Who should be the one to cry?
Mask this frown
Mask it til it all comes down
