smiles hide,
the truth inside,
behind a facade of lies,
that life is as simple as it seems,
your happy to be alive,
you have it all together,
in this masquerade of lies,
yet on the inside,
past the lies,
your crying inside,
drowning in your life,
that isn't as everyone thinks its like,
that behind the smile that hides,
the truth lies,
that you want to die,
this perfect life,
isn't just fine,
yet no one sees past the smile,
no one hears your pleas,
no one to hold you as you cry,
no comfort in the mask of lies,
you want to take it off,
you want to cry,
to say I'm not fine,
I'm broken inside,
but the same smile,
creeps in your mind,
tells you different lies,
they love the lies not the inside,
they love the always happy,
the I've got it all together,
ready to live my life,
They love the mask of lies,
the door is open you can escape,
but if you do they know,
that you aren't perfect,
that the perfect life,
is all a lie,
you slowly try to show,
that your not alright,
those closest to you quake,
think your sick,
the smile lie was right,
she was alone,
in this fight,
the mask controlled her life,
but not her eyes,
she longed for someone to see,
the truth behind the lies,
to save her from the mask,
that stole her life,
to look into her eyes,
and see the truth behind the lies...
her mask began to choke,
All the hope inside,
doubt and depression filled her mind,
Yet still happy on the outside,
one day a stranger looked her in the eyes,
he saw past the lies,
he saw the broken girl inside,
he heard her cries,
he moved past the lies,
you don't have to lie,
I know your not right,
I know you hurt inside,
I know you want to be free,
I know not all is as it seems,
don't believe the lies,
Let them die,
Because no one's perfect on the inside,
Be who you are,
Not behind,
The mask of lies,
That kills your mind,
And tries to bind,
Your life to lies,
Take off the mask,
And you will find,
That everyone hides,
No one is fine,
That everyone needs to find,
The strength to fight,
Against the mask of lies,
Now be free,
From the lies,
That you were once bound,
And look past the mask,
To save everyone else,
Look into their eyes,
That beg for help...

Learn to look past the lies. And find out who they are inside. Yours truly,
The Messenger.
