I say I need a mask
To hide the monster inside.
When really, I need the mask
To protect the child on the inside.
I am still a little girl, really
Crying, afraid of the monsters hiding in the dark.
I am still the little child,
Cowering away from the scary shadows in the night.
I am merely a coward,
A stupid little girl who can't face herself.
