Beneath the Mask
I wear a mask of porcelain bright,267Please respect copyright.PENANAIReuwSVeJw
painted smiles in borrowed light.267Please respect copyright.PENANAn91xBXccsU
Yet in the hush of midnight’s breath,267Please respect copyright.PENANAWcvOn94sfU
I taste the truth, I dance with death.
The words I speak, so light, so sweet,267Please respect copyright.PENANAA5Bdbnvk07
hide footsteps bruised on weary feet.267Please respect copyright.PENANAeRo9qhq8TA
A laugh that rings, a heart that cries,267Please respect copyright.PENANAYi17nNY5PV
a dream that drowns in silver lies.
I turn away, the world won’t see267Please respect copyright.PENANA231Pe3IKmm
the war that rages inside me.267Please respect copyright.PENANAfQ3PyDT9dw
Yet in the dark, when I am still,267Please respect copyright.PENANA8nGhviqSik
the shadows bend to match my will.
They hold my pain, they guard my scars,267Please respect copyright.PENANAiATZoUAOoF
they whisper truths beneath the stars.267Please respect copyright.PENANAmrsvWIwJUD
And though the world may never ask,267Please respect copyright.PENANAG6ds3ICBBc
the night still knows—beneath the mask.
