masks
Concealing what you don’t like
what happens when you take off the mask
you cloak the things that make you human
put on a face, artificial.
Covering more than just your face
where have you buried your soul?
Veiled esthetic, can you tear down your walls?
Berlin is miles away.
Censoring your life
what is the gain of hiding
you're not just deceiving them, you're deceiving yourself
truth be told...
Repressing what makes you unique
where is your safe place
if you live on a battlefield?
bullets hit as hard as words
Can you hold on long enough to fall
when you drown in the words can we revive you?
are you in too deep...
can you pull off the mask?
