Why
Why do you always hide
All your feelings inside
Can't you show that you care
I know you're there
Behind the mask of unkind
Is someone who needs to unwind
I feel you lock your feelings in your heart
I don't want you to be apart
Away from me and my love
I can't deny
It burns me inside
That you have to hide
From me and my heart
I want you to know I care
Every time and everywhere
I see it in your eyes
So sad and wise
But just to reminisce
Of all the good things
I'll give you a kiss
A kiss of the roses
That hides behind the thorns
I'm like you that way
I'm frightened of the day
I wish the memories would melt away
I keep my mask in place
Except when I see your face
I love you so
I wish I could let you know
But you won't let me near
You hide the roses I find so dear
You block the love I try to give
I always wonder how you live
Behind a curtain to hide the day
You let the shadows take you away
You lock your feelings away from me
So I lock my feelings for no one else to see
We're two lost souls you and I
But I have to wonder
Why?
