My Happy Mask

I put it on each morning
for if I don't, people don't know me
No-body knows me, not without it
When I don't have it, I fade
I fade into the walls
but with it, I'm normal
or what they think is normal
but no-one knows what my real normal is
they only think they do
When I have it,
I smile, laugh, and joke
but when I don't, I'm just the opposite
but only I know why
I out it on each morning
and take it off each night
when I take it off
rain starts falling
and all comes out
everything that they don't know
all the pain, and heartbreak
the pain of trying to please you
the heartbreak of knowing you don't care
the clear, white rain eventually turned red
and still nothing changes
I just put a bigger one on
to hide all the marks
I put it on each morning, just to please you all
and I take it off each night
