My mask (improved)

I am hidden
You can’t tell the truth
My emotions are complicated
And my thoughts are too

My mask is there to save you
From my confusing ways
My mask is to protect you
So I am normal, in your eyes

But in my eyes
Life is strange
Moments flicker by
The past, present and future become one

I see the dangers
Of another knowing
My complicated ways and thoughts
Must stay hidden behind my mask

My mask is there to save you
From my confusing ways
My mask is to protect you
So I am normal, in your eyes
