Masked

Allow me to pour what my mind contains,

This wound has closed but still brings pain

A reminder of what was once the feeling of sane, the same pain that came and left a boy who's now a frame with thoughts so large, a heart untamed he's dreaming big but stays in lane cause he falls down the same as all the rain

Keep your bones in place, keep a happy face and keep up with the pace

Minutes, days , months ago, years and years it goes so slow, they said it would get better but i feel its something you should know,

It's not, It's not, It's not...

But all I see is empty lies to to satisfy a mind that cries with guilt and needs a deed of good to tell itself it's great inside, so lie and lie and lie, but it just won't be alright,

Don't give me a sense of hope, crushed by reality, trying to fit normality but my mind's just abnormalities my life is full of vanity , try to stop the beating drum and oh so selfish i've become

I tell myself that the hurt is just my ignorance, cloud the pain with indifference bring my life some deliverance, these thoughts scream with belligerence, wear a mask with a smile that lasts long if you cry for awhile and in the back of your mind the thoughts will pile and pile try not scream for a while while you're crawling the mile you call life with a mask, quite an unhealthy lifestyle this need to escape will compile, from your own mind an exile

Pull back your cheeks and show your teeth so people will think that you still breathe, crying inside and dying beneath, your mouth has words of joy that's spoken, heart and soul are just so broken, fill your mind with words unspoken, a sense of worth is is yet to be found, they all say that he's bound for the sky but he can't turn around so he cuts and he bleeds and the warnings he never heads with the hate off which he feeds drags him to the edge and the hope that he needs is

Gone
