Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1: They say I’m strong, they see me smile, “A beacon of grace,” they say for a while. They nod, they cheer, “You’re doing so well,” But inside, I’m trapped in a private hell. Verse 2: The world keeps spinning, I play my part, But grief carves scars deep in my heart. My laughter rings hollow, my words feel fake, Each breath I take is a chore to make. Chorus: They see the mask I’ve carefully drawn, A veil of strength to greet the dawn. But behind the facade, the truth resides, A storm of sorrow I cannot hide. Verse 3: The still nights echo, tears I can't restrain, I speak to phantom forms, a whispered, haunting pain. Their name's a ghost, a silent, haunting plea, A weight I carry every day, eternally. Verse 4: I wish they knew, I wish they'd see, This pain that’s quietly drowning me. But to share my truth feels far too much, So I wear my mask and sit in the dark. Chorus: They see the mask I’ve carefully drawn, A veil of strength to greet the dawn. But behind the facade, the truth resides, A storm of sorrow I cannot hide. Outro/Bridge: Strong, they call me, but it’s not true, I’m just surviving, as people do. Perhaps one day, this mask will start to fade, And I’ll find my way through the life that was remade.
