Beneath the Mask
I wear a mask of porcelain bright,194Please respect copyright.PENANAhaf6xgF0LY
painted smiles in borrowed light.194Please respect copyright.PENANAJD0HBAGONS
Yet in the hush of midnight’s breath,194Please respect copyright.PENANAUgwimA9Niq
I taste the truth, I dance with death.
The words I speak, so light, so sweet,194Please respect copyright.PENANAzwpTzIAXKM
hide footsteps bruised on weary feet.194Please respect copyright.PENANAvE8uhLCL2I
A laugh that rings, a heart that cries,194Please respect copyright.PENANAXSxWRI24J9
a dream that drowns in silver lies.
I turn away, the world won’t see194Please respect copyright.PENANAMFXPCXnFhS
the war that rages inside me.194Please respect copyright.PENANAGkKYoCz9YO
Yet in the dark, when I am still,194Please respect copyright.PENANANUqDKuwcb2
the shadows bend to match my will.
They hold my pain, they guard my scars,194Please respect copyright.PENANA0K9tboshd2
they whisper truths beneath the stars.194Please respect copyright.PENANAjEc1c4Z21G
And though the world may never ask,194Please respect copyright.PENANApnwpzYQYml
the night still knows—beneath the mask.
