The Mask He Wore

He wore a mask
For the mask I fell
Head over heels
Deep into a well

A well full of lies
And brimming with tears
That poured from my eyes
For the boy I held dear

The mask he wore
I gave it my trust
And into my heart
A knife it did thrust

A knife as cold and cruel
As any lethal blow
My head falls in sadness
And he knows that I know

That mask he wore
I tore it away
What I saw underneath
I do not wish to say

All my hopes, all my dreams
Smashed beyond repair
He let me go, down I fell
Fell deep into dark despair
