Mask Song Lyrics by Dream
I wear a mask with a smile for hours at a time
Stare at the ceiling while I hold back what’s on my mind And when they ask me how I’m doing I say, “I’m just fine” And when they ask me how I’m doing I say, “I’m just fine” But the fact is I can never get off of my mattress And all that they can ask is “Why are you so sad, kid?” (Why are you so sad, kid?)That’s what the mask is
That’s what the point of the mask isSo you can see I’m tryin’
You won’t see me cryin’ I’ll just keep on smilin’, I’m good (yeah, I’m good) And it just keeps on pilin’ It’s so terrifying But I keep on smilin’, I’m good (yeah, I’m good) I’ve been carin’ too much for so long Been comparin’ myself for so long Been wearin’ a smile for so long, it’s real So long, it’s real, so long, it’s realAlways bein’ judged by a bunch of strange faces
Scared to go outside, haven’t seen the light in ages But I’ve been places So I’m okay-ish, so I’m okay-ish Yeah, I’m okay, bitch But the fact is I need help, I’m failin’ all my classes They think that I need glasses I just really wish that I could pass this (wish that I could pass this)That’s what the mask is
That’s what the point of the mask isSo you can see I’m tryin’
You won’t see me cryin’ I’ll just keep on smilin’, I’m good (yeah, I’m good) And it just keeps on pilin’ It’s so terrifying But I keep on smilin’, I’m good (yeah, I’m good) I’ve been carin’ too much for so long Been comparin’ myself for so long Been wearin’ a smile for so long, it’s real So long, it’s real, so long, it’s realSo long, it’s real
So long, it’s real
