I have a lot of memories,
That just won't go away,
I find them hard to deal with,
They still haunt me today.

Sometimes it hurts so much,
that I have to go away and cry,
I just let go and let it all out,
Then take a deep breath and sigh.

I have a mask I hide behind,
So no one sees the tears,
I don't want them to know,
What I've been hiding all these years.

Everyone sees the mask,
No one knows the real me.
If I trust you, you know some,
You know there�s a lot more to see.

Others see what I want them to see,
They don�t bother to look behind,
this mask of mine that I wear;
Others are scared of what they�ll find.
