And I pull away my mask of smiles and laughter,

To reveal a face that has seen horrific slaughter,

Taming my new wounds in the mirror,

Yet to put back the fake face on after

Not one soul could see through this shield on my face,

It's all right,

Of course keeping the horror hidden is just for their own sake
