The mask
Look at the world with lifeless eyes
 they do not see the soul.
 Grin untill the smile cracks
 they do not see past
 to the bloody heart
 that cries out in the darkest night
 The heavens count our tears
 but those on earth hide their fears
 wear a mask of lifeless smiles,
 hide the eyes with tricks and guile.
 If they can not see the soul
 they don't know the pain it holds.
 If they close the mouth,
 cut off the smile,
 they don't see the heart defiled.
 If they close their ears to darkness
 they dont hear the fears or tears.
 Live a life of empty noise,
 never know potential joys,
 wear the mask of fake beguiling,
 you will never see another tear.
