My Living Paradox

Best face forward, hide inside
This skin foreign but all I have
Peel it away, all my phony pride
Beware; you won’t like what you see

Smothered with expectation, who I oughta be
Look in the mirror, who are you?
Tear away the mask, ill never be free

Want what you don’t own
Have what you don’t want
Now you’re all alone
Alone with a shallow front

Smothered with expectation, who I oughta be
Look in the mirror, who are you?
Tear away the mask, ill never be free

Grin, laugh, sneer and hate
Which smile will I use today?
Duplicity my saving grace
Next to my pillow my gun lay

Smothered with expectation, who I oughta be
Look in the mirror, who are you?
Tear away the mask, ill never be free

Standing alone and bare for you
Or am I still masked
Does it matter to anyone?
Is that why you’ve never asked

I take my savior off of the bed
Last look in the mirror for hates sake
I wonder if I will feel it pass through my head
But it can’t hurt right? After all I’m just a fake
