I fear myself when I’m with you
I fear taking off the mask
Showing you my truly self
Will only scare you off
Showing you my pain, my hurt
Will drive you far away
When all I really want
Is for you to stay
But this mask is burning
It’s letting go
And soon it will fall off
And when it does I hope you’ll see
The person underneath is still me
So when my soul is naked
For everyone to see
All I ask of you
Is to be there with me
To cover up what I’ve been hiding
For no one else to see
Cause this pain, this hurt
Belongs to only me…
