Behind a Mask - Atheena

Please

Give me the strength to carry on

I’m isolated

And alienated

From all of the hopes I have

If it would mean that you could hold my hand again

I wouldn’t change it for the world all over again

When I see you are fine with all of your friends

My life turns to a play that I’m waiting to end

What if I told you you’re the only one

Would you come back and say that you’re in love

I fake a smile and tell you I’m just fine

But you know that’s a lie and I am on the line

So

Here we stand without each other

I can’t go back now

I screwed up this one time

And now I will pay my price

Every time I see your god damn face

I’m reminded of a beauty that can’t be erased

My mind has turned in to a fucking maze

For you I hold my heart like a cooking grenade

What if I told you you’re the only one

Would you come back and say that you’re in love

I fake a smile and tell you I’m just fine

But you know that’s a lie and I am on the line

I know you ment the world to me

But now it’s gone

A mask is my escape

From all the tears that fall

I know I don’t belong in this world anymore

Been standing ready

With my feet on the edge

What if I told you you’re the only one

Would you come back and say that you’re in love

I fake a smile and tell you I’m just fine

But you know that’s a lie and I am on the line
