I'm sorry I am making you feel uncomfortable, make you want to run away

I would've put my mask on, but I am getting it cleaned today

A new smile, new face, same emotion to portray

Because I know I can't trust my face to say

That everything's alright, it will all be okay

And I just wanted to talk and for someone to listen

Because this fight is getting harder day by day

I'll be fine then I am not, don't know what to do

Angry at myself and the world, emotional too

But how much I scream or how much I cry

No one seems willing to help me in any which way

I don't want to die but I am not okay

The world just doesn't understand this so I hide it away

Put my fresh mask on to hide the pain and my tears

My smile so bright like I don't have any fears

Now you don't need to worry and can continue your day

I'll deal with it myself, even though I wanted you to stay
