Masks

Behind the laughter, a storm brews inside,
A shattered soul where shadows collide.
The bottle whispers, the needle sings,
Temporary solace in broken wings.

They see the smile, the painted facade,
But deep in the night, it all feels so hard.
If they could see the war you wage,
Would they treat your heart with a gentler gaze?

Chorus
And the cycle spins, round and round,
The light of day, the dark underground.
A happy face to mask the ache,
But in the dark, you break, you break.
If they knew how heavy the night can feel,
Would they offer a love that's real?

Verse 2
The mornings are cruel, the mirror’s a lie,
The tears are dry, but the pain won't die.
You dance on the edge, you teeter, you sway,
Hoping tomorrow feels lighter someday.

They see the strength, the surface control,
But they can't see the cracks in your soul.
If they knew the darkness that you've endured,
Would their love be softer, their words more pure?

Chorus
And the cycle spins, round and round,
The light of day, the dark underground.
A happy face to mask the ache,
But in the dark, you break, you break.
If they knew how heavy the night can feel,
Would they offer a love that's real?

Bridge
Every glass raised is a bridge you burn,
Every high fades, and the lows return.
But there's a spark in the ash, a reason to fight,
A hope that tomorrow could rewrite the night.


So take this song, let it echo through,
For the ones who feel the darkness too.
May the world learn to see, to hear, to care,
For the hearts weighed down by despair.
The cycle spins, but it can change,
Together we can break the chain.
