you're angry, but you can wear a smiling mask
and hide yourself until its past and it'll fade away
you're crying, but you can hide your honest eyes

at least until the tears are dry and it'll fade away

you've been waiting so long for the sun to
set in the sky and be out of your eyes
you've been hiding behind your facade
and something's gone wrong beneath your disguise

you're lonely, but you can fill your emptiness
with the faces of your shallow friends and hope it fades away
you're wounded, but patch yourself with things to do -
a band-aid for a bullet wound - and hope it fades away
