Beneath the Mask
I wear a mask of porcelain bright,125Please respect copyright.PENANApTfFJs4I1z
painted smiles in borrowed light.125Please respect copyright.PENANA8saJbX1WRl
Yet in the hush of midnight’s breath,125Please respect copyright.PENANAFDfhFX5GF0
I taste the truth, I dance with death.
The words I speak, so light, so sweet,125Please respect copyright.PENANA4IIid8dgPX
hide footsteps bruised on weary feet.125Please respect copyright.PENANApmYq4mi6Zf
A laugh that rings, a heart that cries,125Please respect copyright.PENANAsUjdc6mfrL
a dream that drowns in silver lies.
I turn away, the world won’t see125Please respect copyright.PENANADdpo32DkWR
the war that rages inside me.125Please respect copyright.PENANAtRRcDprPCg
Yet in the dark, when I am still,125Please respect copyright.PENANAuiBvvdO9sp
the shadows bend to match my will.
They hold my pain, they guard my scars,125Please respect copyright.PENANAJqz2Hc3iQ6
they whisper truths beneath the stars.125Please respect copyright.PENANAUJ4tyyd1po
And though the world may never ask,125Please respect copyright.PENANARF0IKzFp4t
the night still knows—beneath the mask.
