Beneath the Mask
I wear a mask of porcelain bright,161Please respect copyright.PENANAACFmPppJIW
painted smiles in borrowed light.161Please respect copyright.PENANAQNRFj67gGj
Yet in the hush of midnight’s breath,161Please respect copyright.PENANAnol6CnWy4y
I taste the truth, I dance with death.
The words I speak, so light, so sweet,161Please respect copyright.PENANAyzW9vkZuQw
hide footsteps bruised on weary feet.161Please respect copyright.PENANAuLAFsnz0XH
A laugh that rings, a heart that cries,161Please respect copyright.PENANA4h3b1WgHXG
a dream that drowns in silver lies.
I turn away, the world won’t see161Please respect copyright.PENANAi2ipq79lKG
the war that rages inside me.161Please respect copyright.PENANAq61daCsSDD
Yet in the dark, when I am still,161Please respect copyright.PENANAx6Bxbb76vt
the shadows bend to match my will.
They hold my pain, they guard my scars,161Please respect copyright.PENANAtAc41Kbt7P
they whisper truths beneath the stars.161Please respect copyright.PENANAKi5yQhXjQB
And though the world may never ask,161Please respect copyright.PENANA9y5o03apFq
the night still knows—beneath the mask.
