"Masks Bound by Chains"
Living lies as I set foot in society,
Placing a 100 fool-proof façade.
No one knows the real me,
Nobody but my self-alone.
Taking off the mask I wear when no one is around,
Playing the role of another character,
Learning the lines, practicing endlessly
Until I can't tell which one is the real me.
Building the walls within yourself
Block by block, this is how it goes
Standing on my own, lonesome
In a crowd of faceless masses
Hidden behind that façade of mine
Fooling everyone about the real me
I can't afford slips-ups;
They'll force the truth if they knew
Feigning my cheerful act
They'll soon learn to ignore me
Feeling unwanted or out of place: an outcast
Wanting to return home
Sometimes it's hard to breathe
No one really notices
They only see my mask
Never looking underneath the underneath.
Hiding emotions behind a mask
Hiding my real emotions, slipping on the fake
Anger, pain, worthlessness, so much more
Hidden all behind a mask
Waiting... until someone shatters it,
I will look down and gather the pieces
Soon it will repair itself
Mending back in my routine.
Until something, someone
Willing to shatter my mask
Gathering the pieces before I can
And hide them away
Forcing me to expose myself
And care for me, loving me...
The one behind the mask
The one I locked away from society.
One will bring me from my darkness
Into the light
Freeing me from
The mask that held me in place
The chains that bound me
The ones i locked myself away in.
Freeing my from the chains that bound me to my mask.

I truly believe this is how Naruto feels, I really just think he is hiding behind a façade, to mask his true feelings, to be able to handle the pain in Society.
