Naked

 

We have to wear the masks we make,

Disguise must be assured,

Or you'll find us seeping through our walls,

You'll see us, feel it all.

 

Your weakness naked, pain exposed,

Your hateful nature stored,

In veils of pity, sweat and tears,

Flow outwards, cast in claws.

 

You're oh so weak, just sitting there,

The weight of sorrow tries,

It tries to blind you, can't you see?

There's clouding o'er your eyes.

 

Confusion's how you find your peace,

The truth can't break inside,

But the stirrings of your self begin,

From you, no place to hide.

 

Carving signs, diverting lies,

Your loathing to the core,

Your piteous, selfish problems,

Haunting, hate yourself once more.

 

Who gave us right to live and breath?

What gives you need, to cause

To hurt, to lie, to cheat, to die,

To need, to make up laws?

 

Does it matter what, or who, or why,

Must you always seek a cause?

Or can I just accept my fate,

And live MY life, not yours.
