Believe

Written by tammy hussain aka Tealana

i wear a mask
to protect myself

I wear a mask
to fool the world that I don't have a face

I wear a mask
to hide my heart but I cant hide from what I want

I wear a mask
to lock away my eyes
so no one can see what could be found inside of me
or see what secrets I may have

I wear a mask
as I walk on the earth like the light meets the shadow

I wear a mask
to never show
I can smile

I wear a mask
to never share a kiss

I wear a mask
to never be known by no one

If I'm never to be known
If I'm never known by no one
I'll never be broken or hurt

I wear a mask
to stay hidden
If I'm never found
no one can mistreat me
no one can betray me

I wear a mask
so I can be left alone
but I cant make you
wear a mask like me
I wont let you live a life like I have

For you to wear a mask
that I will not let you hide
your beauty you carry

I wear a mask
to hide my scars
I don't want you to wear a mask
you have no reason to

I wear a mask
because there is no hope for me
to have a beautiful face to be proud to have like yours

Your face is beautiful
because I believe it to be so....
