Beneath the Mask
I wear a mask of porcelain bright,128Please respect copyright.PENANAzDucZcND34
painted smiles in borrowed light.128Please respect copyright.PENANALKbJ5lUxcG
Yet in the hush of midnight’s breath,128Please respect copyright.PENANAglroHmudo9
I taste the truth, I dance with death.
The words I speak, so light, so sweet,128Please respect copyright.PENANAx20lmy7FYd
hide footsteps bruised on weary feet.128Please respect copyright.PENANAllgDxcn2dV
A laugh that rings, a heart that cries,128Please respect copyright.PENANAtOPAFko1eq
a dream that drowns in silver lies.
I turn away, the world won’t see128Please respect copyright.PENANAxTwAGk02Et
the war that rages inside me.128Please respect copyright.PENANAnJNZKsGz9Q
Yet in the dark, when I am still,128Please respect copyright.PENANAf2zeAIol4J
the shadows bend to match my will.
They hold my pain, they guard my scars,128Please respect copyright.PENANAQVabVafUlb
they whisper truths beneath the stars.128Please respect copyright.PENANAer3pd2xiFD
And though the world may never ask,128Please respect copyright.PENANA8pM6K3buyk
the night still knows—beneath the mask.
