Lyrics:

The lies we tell ourselves are never kind
But still I tell myself it will all be fine
I find myself in uncomfortable places
And I don’t know how I can face this

Put on a mask and smile for the photo
There’s turmoil inside, and only I know
I feel like I can only go so low
I feel like I can only go solo

Tears don’t fall, they hide away
Fake composure as I join the play
I wish my lines weren’t all so sappy
“I’d give almost anything to be happy”

That’s not true, as it’s plain to see
I value everyone else over me
Ignore my pain, my hopes and dreams
Strangle out all of my sobs and screams

Put on a mask and smile for the photo
There’s turmoil inside, and only I know
I feel like I can only go so low
I feel like I can only go solo

If there is an answer, don’t tell me about it
I’ve set my sights and would rather not doubt it
No matter how bad the match, I’ll fit the mold
To not cause trouble I’d sell my very soul

This mask fits me oh so well
Through sickness and through hell
I’ll bear it day and night
I’ll guard it with my life
