You place your hands upon your face
Because you believe it hides your fear
A past that you constantly try to erase
Seems as if nothing you love is made clear
Your vision is made simple by the fact that you are blind
You'll never see what they see;so many bruises, so many lies
So you're never truly seeking, though you always find
Your ears have become useless and so you'll never hear your cries
But you feel the tears that struggle
And that's enough to haunt your everyday
With the many things you juggle
And still you never pray
The world sees a broken beaten worthless girl
Places you'll never see, words you'll never hear, things you'll never do
Around me the lights begin to whirl
I oughta be loving you
So I peel away your mask to see what you've once erased
Take away the broken blades and all your costumed skin
But you place your hands upon your face
And we're back where we started again....
