Look around, and see the Brokenness out there
(Happening again...)
It's all around, and you don't even care.
[chorus]:
Trapped inside your selfish needs
Shunning everything so you cannot see;
This life you live is falling down,
Can't wait until you hit the ground.
You fall apart and you think that it's the end,
But from the start, It's only happening again
[chorus]
Fighting for everything you want
Won't get you anywhere,
your life might seem full,
But in truth it's bare.
Take a look at those you see,
They might be the ones in need.
[chorus]
Break away from all you need,
Healing woulds that only bleed.
Saving those in misery,
Maybe then you you will receive.

Masks
When a smile is a frown
And a frown is a smile,
The eyes we must crown
For relinquishing wile,
When a laugh is a tear
And a tear holds no pain,
Will fear fear to fear
And fearfully abstain?
When the act is the truth
We've lied to believe,
And the fable in sooth
Is but a peerless weave,
When each mortal mistake
Is a tale and a song
And the scriptures are fake
Or perhaps they're wrong,
When the mind is the eye
That sees the outside
But shame, it's too shy
Of the tongue which has lied,
When the answers are easy
To the questions unknown,
Do you not feel queasy
Of how little we've grown?
When acceptance is feigning
For it

Heartbreak Masquerade
I can't remember what it feels like to be happy...
My smile no longer shrouded in sincerity.
It is like a heartbreak masquerade, fooling everyone;
Exhausted, I remove my mask when the day is done.
I'm a professional at what I do: I hide what I feel -
When I get hurt, I pretend like it is no big deal.
In reality, it's killing me; feel my heart breaking
The sad part? My friends don't know that I'm faking.
I can't remember the sound of my laughter any more;
Feels odd when I smile, like I've never done it before.
My heart soaring with joy - well, that feeling is gone
Dreaming about another guy that isn't you feels wrong.
It is like I

Hide Behind a Mask
Have you ever had to hide behind a mask?
Whether it be your friends, your family.
Have you ever had to be someone you're not?
Have you ever pretended to be strong
When all you want to do is break down,
To be weak and let someone else be strong for once.
Have you ever tried to put on a fake smile
And pretend that you're happy?
That's what everyone thinks, isn't it?
That the key to life is happiness?
That's how we get by with people, isn't it?
So why not give them what they want?
Even when all you want is the complete opposite
And sometimes you just want to cry
And not have to pretend for once
And to have the comfort of knowing that it's ok.
