Do You Want To See?

This mask that covers my face, muffles my voice
With one sharp pull, I could expose


But the lack of hope, the cynical
Leaves me no choice


It will forever remain attached,
Eyes darkening, ears glistening


Until the day one takes the chance
To decide his own fate rather than leaving it in the air


How childish some can act,
Trying to fool me with their unpleasant laughs

I know inside whether you can see,
The strings that attach this mask to me


Backward or forward, whichever step I take
It will lead me back to where I am today


This world, so full of its perks and peaks
Continues to dissapoint me


You can think whatever you think,
Continue to say those awful things


But only those who are true will get to see
What is hidden underneath this mask.
