The Mask

Through this mask I only see
The innocence that I've been taught
Will I cry if it is gone?
To see the real world through my own eyes
No envy
No hurt
No penetration
Just a vague idea of love
Only a few corners away
There is a profit in masks
All brushed and happy ever after
Steal kisses behind closed doors
Filling up your daytime TV
The truth is difficult to find
They keep on taking it away
This is normal
You are wrong
Protect them from the reasons why
The mask went long ago
But it's scars are still deep
Left lying naked in the street
Too afraid to see the truth again
