MASK OF DISGUISE

The world is falling
Falling apart
Watch as it rapidly collapses
Shattering into a billion pieces

No one notices
No one ever stops to look
At the girl who wears a mask
Hiding pain deep within herself

Everyone loves the girl
Who wears a mask
Full of smiles and laughter
But no one dares to look

Beyond the disguise
Where all the pain
And dark memories reside
A tortured soul remains

Occasionally, she tries
To show others
Who she really is
But no one stops long enough

To listen
To the troubles of a girl
Wearing a mask of smiles
