Beneath the Mask
I wear a mask of porcelain bright,152Please respect copyright.PENANAvdZHLhAg9T
painted smiles in borrowed light.152Please respect copyright.PENANANZ4YKU0S2e
Yet in the hush of midnight’s breath,152Please respect copyright.PENANAicF8RWlWNA
I taste the truth, I dance with death.
The words I speak, so light, so sweet,152Please respect copyright.PENANAjIMBBxei8e
hide footsteps bruised on weary feet.152Please respect copyright.PENANASUXF6B1bAu
A laugh that rings, a heart that cries,152Please respect copyright.PENANA3eObAAzsF8
a dream that drowns in silver lies.
I turn away, the world won’t see152Please respect copyright.PENANA3Rz0a4dQJS
the war that rages inside me.152Please respect copyright.PENANAmgAGowhFIg
Yet in the dark, when I am still,152Please respect copyright.PENANAD48eLaXMRN
the shadows bend to match my will.
They hold my pain, they guard my scars,152Please respect copyright.PENANAN3165ZtB17
they whisper truths beneath the stars.152Please respect copyright.PENANAtHCjyn9Fru
And though the world may never ask,152Please respect copyright.PENANAfz9h5WWgCb
the night still knows—beneath the mask.
