Behind the Mask

I didn't mean to fall
But I knew you would catch me

Oh no
That was a big mistake

You watched and laughed
And pointed me out to your friends

I was being tortured
But I still loved you

Around me you were kind
You acted like you loved me too

That was all fake
Because truly, you were a monster

I didn't see that
I was blind

I trusted you
And there for you through everything

Finally there was a breaking point
When you hit me

That's when I opened my eyes
And saw you behind the Mask

The real you is selfish
And especially cruel

I shouldn't have waited til that point
To rid myself of you

I should have realized sooner
About who you truly were
