The things we don't see

The blood on my skin,

It starts to flow thin.

The tears in my eyes,

they have started to dry.

The smile on my face, 

it was replaced.

I was just another face in the crowd.

They didn't know about the clowns,

or the balloon animals, 

made out of intestines.

Or the masks they had,

Those were real faces too.
