Behind The Mask

Shadows dance where secrets dwell

A whisper hides what I can't tell

Behind this grin a stormy sky

A truth that never learned to fly

Veins are rivers running black

Carrying dreams I can't get back

Echoes scream through endless night

I hide the cracks out of their sight

Behind the mask I'm a ghost on fire

Wearing lies like my best attire

A glitter face but my soul's off track

Behind the mask ain’t no turning back

Eyes like windows pulling blinds

What’s locked inside is hard to find

Every smile’s a broken thread

Holding together a life I’ve fled

The mirror’s shattered can’t reflect

A puzzle piece that disconnects

Step in the void taste the unknown

Behind the mask I’m never alone

Behind the mask I'm a ghost on fire

Wearing lies like my best attire

A glitter face but my soul's off track

Behind the mask ain’t no turning back
