That one thing I can never forget
My only defense against the rest
The one thing I know how to do the best
Is put on my masks
I never worry
Never toil
Never think I'll slip and spoil my little secret
I put on my masks
But
I see you and the masks decay
Every day I see your face
And wonder if you wear your masks too
I try to keep myself contained
But with you it slips away
And masks seem to find a way
To disappear
You make me want to face the pain
To dig up all the remains of my past
And live an open life
I wish to see your perfect face
Scars and pockmarks all the same
And add to the beauty that's within
Content of your character without sin
An angel in my view
Distorted by the masks
