its not just any mask
A mask i wear so hard to breathe
Just so no one would know
What's underneath
It's not just any mask that i wear

People ask.
People ask if i'm okay
I can’t explain what's going on, so i would just glare
And that would give them a scare.
Lately all my mind has been saying is “be aware”


I wanna take off the mask
I wanna talk to someone
But who’s fake and who's real.
It messes with my mind so
I put on the mask.

It makes me feel so low
It makes me feel so slow
It makes me feel like i'm losing my soul.
Ill take off the mask one day but for now
A mask i wear so hard to breathe
Just so no one would know
What's underneath
