I look into your eyes and I see kindness
I look into your heart and I see love
But all you show Is a puppet
Really inside you are dying wanting
Wanting to escape the pain
I wish I could take the pain
I love but you don't understand
You are my reason,
Please stay

This is about my best friend. I see the real him but he hides behind a mask like everyone in the world.
