Bare It All
Masks
Our masks need stripped
It’s been awhile
(I need to)
Expose my birthday suit
And smile
The falseness ripped
Expel the bile
All self doubt ripped
Remove denial
(I’m done, I quit)
Playing pretend
It’s lost its zeal
I want it to end
To feel what's real
Show you inside
And not fear you run
(How nice to)
Finally decide
And un-cock that gun
Unload and put away the trash
Coming undone
And be free at last
Shed my fear
(Pressed against the glass)
Future ahead
Freeing the past
Open the blinds
Let everyone see
Destroy the mask
And just be me
