Somehow you saw through my mask.

I smile, it looks happy.

Everyone thinks I'm happy

Everyone believes I'm happy.

But you, you saw.

I cried, sweet big droplet tears.

Everyone rushed around to pat me up

Told me to smile and "be happy" again.

Only you saw my malice, only you backed up.

I don't know why I'm attracted to you.

You are ruining my greatest act.

You're wrecking the Oscar nomination level acting by just staring at me

looking at me.

Seeing me through the mask.

But I want you to stay.

I'm so tired of acting,

of pretending,

of playing.

I'm sick of making sure that my mask is in place,

before I open my eyes.

before I open my mouth.

before I open my heart.

Won't you...stay?

I promise, even if all you give me is silence.

I'll be glad, sleeping beside you truly content.

Knowing that you can see my true cracked face sleeping.
