Behind The Mask
I hide behind a mask.
So I do not reveal
my secret past.
I have no faulty,
but I have all the guilt.
I've pawned, I've stole,
and I've sold, deep and
dark possessions
but I am not a cheat
and I have never lied
I simply did what I had
to do to stay alive.
I know what you think of me,
I have a master in that degree,
but what you see isn't always what it seems.
I'm really gentle and kind.
I'm young and divine.
I'm no devil of the sorts,
but that's people's reports.
But nobody can see what's beneath.
They fail to realize, I had to fight,
I had to stay strong, wouldn't you
if everything had gone wrong?
