Title: Masks Off
Genre: Dark Pop with Emotional Edge
Intro (Soft, atmospheric):
(Spoken)
“They’re only here when it’s easy.
When the light’s on you, they smile.
But when it fades, so do they. Masks off.”
Verse 1 (Sung with light piano):
They only stand with you when you’re on top,
When the world is clapping, and the stage is yours.
But when the curtain falls,
They disappear like whispers in the wind.
I gave them my trust.
I handed them my heart.
But their promises were empty,
And I was left holding the pain.
Chorus (Full instrumental builds): 2 x
Fake friends, I see you now.
The masks are gone, and I see the lies.
I’m done with pretending,
I’m done with your games.
This is my truth, raw and unbroken.
Verse 2 (Softer beat, building tension):
They come around only when they need.
A favor, a lift, a piece of my soul.
But when I stumble, they vanish,
Like smoke dissolving into the air.
I’ve carried this weight for too long,
Breaking my own heart to make them stay.
But now, I’m done waiting.
The door is shut.
Chorus (Stronger, drums kick in):
Fake friends, I see you now.
The masks are gone, and I see the lies.
I’m done with pretending,
I’m done with your games.
This is my truth, raw and unbroken.
Bridge (Energetic, driving beat):
You thought I’d break, you thought I’d fall,
But now I’m stronger, I’ve seen it all.
I’m done with your games, I’m done being used,
This is my moment—I’ll never lose!
Final Chorus (Big, cathartic, full energy): 2x
Fake friends, I see you now.
The masks are gone, and I see the lies.
I’m done with pretending,
I’m done with your games.
This is my truth,
And it’s stronger without you.
Outro (Soft, piano fades out):
Thank you for the lessons.
Thank you for the pain.
You showed me who I don’t want to be.
And now, I’m free
